The equation for the area of a triangle is A= b*h /2. So, plug in your known variables, and you get 270in^2= b*30 /2. First you multiply by 2 to cancel out the division for 2, which gets you 540= b* 30. To get "b" by itself, divide both sides by 30, giving you <u>18=b</u>.
To check this, plug in your new known variable, as 270= 18* 30 /2. This will equal as 270=270, confirming 18in as the correct measurement.
There are no tens, ones, or tenths.

The quadratic equation in its generic form is:
ax2 + bx + c
To complete squares we must add the following term:
(b / 2) ^ 2
The equation is:
ax2 + bx + c + (b / 2) ^ 2
We have the following equation:
x ^ 2 - 5x + k = 7
By completing squares we have:
x ^ 2 - 5x + (-5/2) ^ 2 = 7 + (-5/2) ^ 2
Rewriting:
x ^ 2 - 5x + 6.25 = 7 + 6.25
Answer:
A constant term should be used to complete the square is:
6.25
