Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
in our case we have a baseline with its associated height right there. and so the area is
17 × 6 / 2 = 17 × 3 = 51 ft²
Answer: The numbers are 10 and 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be x
And the larger number be y
Ist sentence;
1. The sum of two numbers is 33.
X + y= 33 .........eqn 1
2. second sentence
the larger number is 3 more than two times the smaller number.
Y = 3 +2x
Put y into eqn 1
X+ 3 +2x = 33
3x= 33- 3
3x= 30
X = 30/3
X= 10 and y= 3+ 2x
Y= 3+ 2(10)
Y = 3+ 20
Y= 23
Therefore the two numbers are 10 and 23
The answer is always negative because if you multiply like signs, the answer is positive, unlike signs are always negative
