9. Area of a triangle is proportional to height. If the height increases by a factor of 4, then ...
The area will increase by a factor of 4. . . . . (2nd selection)
10. The base lengths and height are needed:
• 5 mm
• 8 mm
• 10 mm
x+y=10
x-y=8, x=y+8
y+8+y=10
2y=2
y=1
So, x=10-y=10-1=9.
Numbers Would be 9 and 1.
The solution depends on the value of

. To make things simple, assume

. The homogeneous part of the equation is

and has characteristic equation

which admits the characteristic solution

.
For the solution to the nonhomogeneous equation, a reasonable guess for the particular solution might be

. Then

So you have


This means


and so the general solution would be
You are 22. If you add 22+5 you get 27. And if you divide 27 by 9 you get 3. So it is 22
