Answer:

Height = 14

Base = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

h=6+b

a=(1/2)bh

a=56

56=(1/2)bh

times 2 both sides

112=bh

h=6+b

112=b(6+b)

112=b²+6b

minus 112 both sides

0=b²+6b-112

factor

what 2 numbers multily to get -112 and

add to get 6

-8 and 14

0=(b-8)(b+14)

set to zero

b-8=0

b=8

b+14=0

b=-14

false, measures can't be negative

base=8

h=6+b

h=6+8

h=14

height=14

base=8

What are the zeros of the function f(x) = x2 - 5x + 4?​
stich3 [128]

To find the zeros set the equation equal to zero:

x^2 - 5x +4 = 0

Factor:

(x-4) (x-1) = 0

Now solve each set of parenthesis so that they equal zero:

(x-4) = 0, x =4

(x-1) = 0, x = 1

The zeros are 1,4

What is −5x+4y=3<br> x=2y−15<br> ​
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x=9

y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

you know what the value of x is in terms of the second equation

so put that value into the first equation

so

-5(2y-15) + 4y = 3

-10y + 75 + 4y = 3

-6y + 75 = 3

-6y = -72

y = 12 (now we have the actual value of y, just substitute this into any of the first two original functions)

x = 2(12) - 15

x = 24 - 15

x = 9

You roll two dice. What is the probability that the sum of the dice is greater than 7 and one dice shows a 2? A 6x6 table of dic
vesna_86 [32]
In this question, the condition asked is two which was
1. The dice sum >7 (notice that >7 mean at least 8)
2. One of the two dice show a 2

It will be easier to fulfill the No.2 condition first so you can divide the probability into two,
Case 1: 1st dice show 2: then the second dice need to be 6 to made it sum>7
Case 2:2nd dice show 2: then the second dice need to be 6 to made it sum>7

The probability for a dice showing 2 is 1/6. The probability for a dice showing 6 is 1/6. Then the probability is 1/6 * 1/6= 1/36 for each case
Since case 1 and case 2 has same probability, then you just need to multiply 1/36 *2 = 1/18

Please help me with this question
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Since we have g(4) just replace every x with 4:

g(4) = (4² -6)/(3×4 + 10)

      = (16 - 6)/(12 + 10)

      = 10/22 = 5/11
