Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: b = 4, h = 13
Discussion:
For a triangle with base b" and height "h, the area formula is
A= (1/2)bh.
In our case A = 26, h = 5b-7, so
26 = (1/2) b (5b-7). Multiply both sides by 2:
26*2 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = 5b^2 - 7b => (subtract 52 from both sides)
5b^2 - 7b - 52 = 0. This factors as follows:
(b - 4) (5 b + 13) = 0 (use quadratic formula to find this)
so b = 4 and h = 5b -7 = 5*4 - 7 = 13
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
the opposite Angles sum up to give 180
Step-by-step explanation:
3y +3y = 180
y=30
if y = 30 the x = 55
are you clear?
OK, so she definitely drove home faster than when she drove to her first destination. So she must've taken quicker to get home. Lets assume 3 hours on the way there and 2 hours on the way back.
I really hoped this helped. I'm no genius, but you asked for help and I tried to give it.
Have a great day.
