Answer:
120 cm^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of one triangle = 1/2 * base * height
= 1/2 * 8 * 6
= 1/2 * 48
= 24 cm^2
So area of the pentagon = 5 * 24
= 120 cm^2.
The formula to finding a discriminant would be b^2-4ac, the b value of this trinomial being -5, the a value being 2, the c value being 3. Then, you plug the values in the equation and solve: (-5)^2-4(2)(3)
This would simplify to 1, meaning there are two solutions since the discriminant value is positive. If it is 0, there is one solution, if it is negative, then there are no real solutions.
All i know is that the equation of a straight line is y=mx+c .......where m= gradient and c= the y intercept
Just watch videos on youtube.
the correct answer is -448
