Answer:

The area is 63.75 feet square

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of a triangle is 1/2 × base × height

And we are given each of this variables in the question above

Therefore you just have to input those values to the formula

1/2×17/2×15

255/4

=63.75

Therefore the area of the triangle is 63.75 feet square

Explain how to determine the x- and y- intercepts of a line from a given equation in y = mx + b form.
NISA [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept:  Set y = 0 and solve for x:

 0 = mx + b, or mx = -b, or x = -b/m.  x-intercept is then (-b/m, 0)

y-intercept:  Set x = 0 and solve for y:  y = m(0) + b, or y = b.  y-intercept is then

 (0, b).

A ball is thrown into the air from an apartment balcony and falls to the ground. The height of the ball, h metres, t seconds aft
andriy [413]

Answer:

1+2\sqrt{2} seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

When the ball hits the ground, its height will obviously be 0. Therefore, you can set up the equation the following way:

0=-5t^2+10t+35 \\\\-5(t^2-2t-7)=0

Plugging this into the quadratic equation, you get:

t=\dfrac{2\pm\sqrt{4+28}}{2}= \\\\\dfrac{2\pm4\sqrt{2}}{2}= \\\\1\pm2\sqrt{2}

Since the time must be positive, it takes the ball 1+2\sqrt{2} seconds to hit the ground, or around 3.828. Hope this helps!
