Answer:
Area A = 12 = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)
5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0
Solution;
Base x = 2.4
Height h = 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
base of the triangle is x feet;
Base = x
The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times it's base;
Height = 5x - 2
the area of the triangle is 12 square feet;
Area A = 12 ft^2
The area of a triangle is;
Area A = 1/2 × base × height
Substituting the base and height;;
Area A = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)
Area A = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)
Area A = 12
12 = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply through by 2.
24 = (5x^2 - 2x)
5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0
Solving the simultaneous equation;
x = 2.4 or -2
Since the base cannot be negative;
x = 2.4 ft
Height h = 5x -2 = 5(2.4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10 ft
Base x = 2.4
Height h = 10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
He drives at 54 mph. He will get 108 miles if he drives at that rate for 2 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
9 miles in 1/6 of an hour
9x6=driving speed of 54mph
54x2 is 108 miles
540ml with 12% solution
get 12% of 540
540 times 0.12 = 64.8 ml of pure acid
To find the area of a sector of a circle use the next formula:
As the given circle has a outside angle 90º (it is not part of the sector of the circle) subtract the 90º from 360º (total angle of a circle) to find the angle of the sector:
Find the area of the sector with angle 270º:
Then, the approximate area of the given sector of a circle is 284.955 square inches
