Area for a triangle is (1/2) bh or bh/2
So using this info, b = 1.5 m and h = x and A = 1.5 m^2
A = bh/2
1.5 = 1.5x/2
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of fraction ... 3 = 1.5x
Divide both sides by 1.5 ... 2 = x so x= 1.5 m

Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
lets take x as the number
so
6(x-3)=x-3
since it says "6 times" we know that we will have to multiply the difference by 6 and it says the difference of a number and 3 is equal to 3 less than the number so we know that we are subtracting 3 from x
6x-18=x-3
6x-x=18-3
5x=15
x=3
Check the picture below.
notice, the focus point is at 4,5 whilst the directrix line is at y = -3, below the focus point, meaning the parabola is vertical and opening upwards.
keeping in mind that the vertex is "p" distance from either of these fellows, then the vertex is half-way between both of them, notice in the picture, the distance from y = 5 to y = -3 is 8 units, half that is 4 units, thus the vertex 4 units from the focus or 4 units from the directrix, that puts it at (4,1), whilst "p" is 4, since the parabola is opening upwards, is a positive 4 then.
