Area = (1/2)bh   
h = b-4

(1/2)b(b-4) = 48
b(b-4) = 48 : (1/2)
b² - 4b = 96
b² - 4b - 96 = 0
D = (-4)² - 4·(-96) = 16 + 384 = 400 = 20²
b₁ = (4-20)/2 = -8     ∅
b₂ = (4+20)/2 = 12

The length of the base = 12 m

Since we aren't told the length of the 3rd bar, focus solely on the lengths of the first 2 bars.  Add together their lengths:  1.15 cm + 3.92 cm = 5.07 cm.

A customer that uses an internet plan that costs $10 per month is expected to give a customer rating of 6

<h3>How to determine the customer rating?</h3>

We start by calculating the regression equation of the table of values using a graphing calculator.

Using the graphing calculator, we have:

y = 0.04x + 5.75

When the cost is $10 per month, it means that

x = 10

So, we have:

y = 0.04 * 10 + 5.75

Evaluate

y = 6.15

Approximate

y = 6

Hence, a customer that uses an internet plan that costs $10 per month is expected to give a customer rating of 6
