2b² + 13b - 7

First you multiply the first and last number together, which is 2 and 7.

2 · 7 = 14

Now that you got 14, you try to find all the factors of 14 and see if any of them add up to or subtract to 13.

14:

1 · 14 = 14

2 · 7 = 14

Your factors are 1, 2, 7, and 14. 14 and 1 subtract to 13, so you can replace 13b with this:

2b² + 14b - 1b - 7 (it is not -14b + 1b because 13b is positive)

Next you factor the equation separately.

2b(b + 7) - 1b - 7

2b(b + 7) - 1(b + 7)

(2b - 1)(b + 7)

Find the area. Round to the nearest tenth.
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is

A=\frac{1}{2}bh and we have the base (12m) and we need to find the height. Using Pythagorean's Theorem:

6^2=4^2+h^2\\36=16+h^2\\20=h^2\\h=2\sqrt{5}

That's the height that we will sub into the area formula:

A=\frac{1}{2}(12)(2\sqrt{5})\\A=12\sqrt{5}\\A=26.8

Use rounding or compatible numbers to estimate 222 plus 203
Vesnalui [34]
200 can be rounded down to 200, which is easy to add with.  Thus, an estimate is 222+200=422.

Alternatively, you could round 222 up a bit, to get 225+200=425.  This is actually the correct answer, but this rounding doesn't make the calculation easier, so if you needed a quick estimate I'd go with the first option.
