Answer:
height = 2.5 ft , base = 8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
the area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A =
bh ( b is the base and h the height )
height = h then base = 2h + 3 and A = 10 , then
h(h + 3) = 10 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )
h(h + 3) = 20 , that is
h² + 3h = 20 ( subtract 20 from both sides )
h² + 3h - 20 = 0 ← in standard form
(h + 4)(2h - 5) = 0 ← in factored form
equate each factor to zero and solve for h
h + 4 = 0 ⇒ h = - 4
2h - 5 = 0 ⇒ 2h = 5 ⇒ h = 2.5
but h > 0 , then h = 2.5
and 2h + 3 = 2(2.5) + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
that is height = 2.5 ft and base = 8 ft
Inequality 1: y ≤ 5x + 1
Inequality 2: y > x - 2
#1. The slope is 5, the y-intercept is 1, the shaded area is below the line and the line is solid, which means that y is less than or equal to the equation. (you add the "equal to" because the line is a solid line)
#2. The slope is 1, the y-intercept is -2, the shaded area is above the line and the line is dotted, which means that y is greater than the equation
Answer:
1 5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
-9 2/7 -(-10 3/7) recall -×- = +
-9 2/7 +10 3/7
1 2+3/7
1 5/7
.059, you move the decimal point two times to the left and the other way around when you want to convert into a percent
