The answer to this is never true
Answer:
3/4 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the weights :
weight of beans 1/4 pound, 1/2 pound, 3/4. pound and 1 pound.
Greatest weight = 1 pound
Least weight = 1/4 pound
Difference = greatest weight - Least weight
Difference = (1 - 1/4) pound
Difference in weight = 3/4 pounds
Since the area of a triangle is in the form
area=0.5(base)(height)
height=base+7
let base=x
area=0.5(x)(7+x)
30=3.5x+0.5x^2
multiply the equation by 2
60=7x+x^2
subtract 60 from both sides
x^2+7x-60=0
(x-5)(x+12)=0
thus x=5 or x=-12 since we are only considering positive answers
x=-12 is rejected
so base=5 and height=5+7=12
