Answer:

base could either be 12 or 5 and the height could be the other

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle = bh/2

30 = bh/2

60/bh

base could either be 12 or 5 and the height could be the other

(12)(5)/2 = 30

Answer: 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is given by :-

\text{Area}=\dfrac{1}{2}\text{ base * height}

Given : The area of a triangle = 30 square units

The length of the base of the triangle = 12 units

Let h be the height of the triangle .

Then , we have

30=\dfrac{1}{2}12\times h\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\dfrac{30}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=5\text{ units}

Hence, the height of a triangle = 5 units

The school sold $6000 worth of tickets. Adult tickets were seven dollar and children’s tickets were three dollars. Three times a
padilas [110]

Answer:

1,500 tickets in total (375 adult tickets and 1,125 children tickets)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of adult tickets sold.

Three times as many children tickets were sold as adults, so 3x is the number of children tickets sold.

Children tickets were three dollars, so 3x children tickets cost \$3\cdot 3x=\$9x.

Adult tickets were seven dollar, so x adult tickets cost \$7\cdot x=\$7x.

The school sold $6000 worth of tickets.

Hence,

9x+7x=6,000\\ \\16x=6,000\\ \\x=\dfrac{6,000}{16}=375\\ \\3x=1,125\\ \\x+3x=375+1,125=1,500

What is the equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the point (2,-2) and is perpendicular to the line b
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

y= - 5/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=2/5x + 2

Making it perpendicular, the slope will change to it's reciprocal and swap operations (+ becomes -). 2/5 will be -5/2. We already know the y-intercept which is -2, so simply put, the equation in slope-intercept form is y = -5/2x - 2

Without using a division or multiplication operator and without using iteration , define a recursive method named product that a
Fantom [35]

I will be using the language C++. Given the problem specification, there are an large variety of solving the problem, ranging from simple addition, to more complicated bit testing and selection. But since the problem isn't exactly high performance or practical, I'll use simple addition. For a recursive function, you need to create a condition that will prevent further recursion, I'll use the condition of multiplying by 0. Also, you need to define what your recursion is.
To wit, consider the following math expression 
 f(m,k) = 0 if m = 0, otherwise f(m-1,k) + k 
 If you calculate f(0,k), you'll get 0 which is exactly what 0 * k is. 
 If you calculate f(1,k), you'll get 0 + k, which is exactly what 1 * k is.   
 So here's the function   
 int product(int m, int k) 
 { 
  if (m == 0) return 0; 
  return product(m-1,k) + k;  
}
