Answer:

The height of the larger traffic signs is 51.96 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that initially, A company makes traffic signs of an equilateral triangle with the perimeter of 144 inches

Now, A company makes similar traffic signs of perimeter 1.25 of original

New perimeter will be 1.25x144=180 inches

Let triangle ABC be a larger triangle with 180inches of the perimeter.

It is given that the triangle is an equilateral triangle,

Therefore, Side AB=BC=AC

The perimeter of a triangle ABC is

AB+BC+AC=180

3AB=180

AB=60 inches

Figure show that triangle ABC and AD is the height of the triangle.

Since, the triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle,

AD is the perpendicular bisector of BC

so that,

BD=DC and Angle ADB=90

In right triangle ADB,

Angle D =90 and Angle B =60

Side BD=60/2=30 inches and AB=60 inches

Using Pythagoras theorem,

AD^{2} +BD^{2} =AC^{2}

(AD)^{2} +(30)^{2} =60^{2}

(AD)^{2} =60^{2}-(30)^{2}

AD=51.96 inches

Thus, The height of the larger traffic signs is 51.96 inches

What does this problem equal?show your work.<br><br>-12(k+4)=60
HACTEHA [7]
Hey there!

First, divide both sides by 12
-12(k+4)/-12= 60/-12 and you would getk+4=5
Now subtract 4 from both sides

k+4-4= 5-4

k=-9

1.What are the zeros of the polynomial function?
Lorico [155]
Let's to the first example:

f(x) = x^2 + 9x + 20

Ussing the formula of basckara

a = 1
b = 9
c = 20

Delta = b^2 - 4ac

Delta = 9^2 - 4.(1).(20)

Delta = 81 - 80

Delta = 1

x = [ -b +/- √(Delta) ]/2a

Replacing the data:

x = [ -9 +/- √1 ]/2

x' = (-9 -1)/2 <=> - 5

Or

x" = (-9+1)/2 <=> - 4
_______________

Already the second example:

f(x) = x^2 -4x -60

Ussing the formula of basckara again

a = 1
b = -4
c = -60

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-4)^2 -4.(1).(-60)

Delta = 16 + 240

Delta = 256

Then, following:

x = [ -b +/- √(Delta)]/2a

Replacing the information

x = [ -(-4) +/- √256 ]/2

x = [ 4 +/- 16]/2

x' = (4-16)/2 <=> -6

Or

x" = (4+16)/2 <=> 10
______________

Now we are going to the 3 example

x^2 + 24 = 14x

Isolating 14x , but changing the sinal positive to negative

x^2 - 14x + 24 = 0

Now we can to apply the formula of basckara

a = 1
b = -14
c = 24

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-14)^2 -4.(1).(24)

Delta = 196 - 96

Delta = 100

Then we stayed with:

x = [ -b +/- √Delta ]/2a

x = [ -(-14) +/- √100 ]/2

We wiil have two possibilities

x' = ( 14 -10)/2 <=> 2

Or

x" = (14 +10)/2 <=> 12
________________


To the last example will be the same thing.

f(x) = x^2 - x -72

a = 1
b = -1
c = -72

Delta = b^2 -4ac

Delta = (-1)^2 -4(1).(-72)

Delta = 1 + 288

Delta = 289

Then we are going to stay:

x = [ -b +/- √Delta]/2a

x = [ -(-1) +/- √289]/2

x = ( 1 +/- 17)/2

We will have two roots

That's :

x = (1 - 17)/2 <=> -8

Or

x = (1+17)/2 <=> 9


Well, this would be your answers.
