I think it's A. Sorry if I get it wrong.
Answer:
Shorter piece= 4 ft, longer piece= 13 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
If shorter piece is x
Longer pc is 2x + 5
Together they make 17 feet
So x + 2x + 5 = 17
3 x + 5 = 17
3x = 17 - 5 = 12
3x = 12
X = 12/ 3 = 4
So shorter pc is 4 feet
Longer pc is 2 x + 5
= (2 x 4) + 5
= 8 + 5 = 13
Answer:
base length = 19 cm , height = 12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Area formula : A = (1/2)*b*h
b = h + 7 cm
A = 114 sq. cm
114 = (1/2) * (h + 7) *h
228 = hh + 7h
hh + 7h - 228 = 0
h = -7/2 + root( 49 - 4*(-228)) /2
h = -7/2 + 31/2
h = 24/2 = 12 cm
base = 12 cm + 7 cm = 19 cm
