A = (1/2) b * h
h = b - 5
42 = (1/2) * b * (b - 5)
42 = (1/2) * b^2 - 5b
multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction (1/2)
2(42) = 2(1/2) *b^2 - 5b
84 = b^2 -5b
Since this is a quadratic equation, subtract 84 from both sides so that it is set = to zero.
b^2 - 5b - 84 = 0
Now factor.
(b - 12)(b + 5) = 0
b - 12 = 0; b = 12
b + 5 = 0; b = -5
You can't have a negative length so the answer is 12m
To check the answer:
A = (1/2) * 12* 7
A = 42 m^2

Answer:
If y(x-y)^2=x, then int1/(x-3y)dx is equal to (A) 1/3log{(x-y)^2+1} (B) 1/4log{(x-y)^2-1} (C) 1/2log{(x-y)^2-1} (D) 1/6 log{(x^2-y^2-1}
Step-by-step explanation:
(x² - 3x + 7) + (3x² + 5x - 9)
(x² + 3x²) + (-3x + 5x) + (7 - 9)
4x² + 2x - 2
