Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

$8 - 2x = 5(x - 2)$

Multiply 5 inside the parenthesis

$8 - 2x = 5x - 10$

Now we add 2x on both sides

$8=7x-10$

Add 10 on both sides

$18=7x$

Divide both sides by 7

x= 18/7

8 - 2x = 5x - 2 is not in the steps

Option C is the answer

In triangle ABC, AB = 11 cm, BC = 9 cm and CA = 10 cm. Find the area of triangle ABC.

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Area = 42.43 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Heron's Formula :

$Area = \sqrt{s\times (s-a) \times (s-b) \times(s -c)} \ , \ where \ s \ =\ \frac{a+ b+ c}{2}$

Find Area :

$s = \frac{11 + 9 + 10 }{2} = \frac{30}{2} = 15$

$Area = \sqrt{15 \times ( 15 - 11 ) \times { (15 - 9 ) \times ( 15 -10)}\\\\$

$= \sqrt{15 \times 4 \times 6 \times 5}\\\\=\sqrt{1800}$

$= 42 . 43 \ cm^2$

8. A square has side length 6 inches. A parallelogram has a base of 6 inches,

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The height is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square = length of a side squared.

This square has area 6^2 = 36 in^2.

Area of the parallelogram = base * height

= 6h.

As the areas are equal:

6h = 36

h = 36/6 = 6 inches.
