Answer:

Base = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Triangle = $\frac{1}{2} Base*Height$

For finding Base:

Base = $\frac{2(Area)}{Height}$

Where Area = 15, Height = 5

Base = $\frac{2(15)}{5}$

Base = 2*3

Base = 6 feet

Answer:

The base is 6 feet long.,

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height so we have

1/2 b h = 15

1/2 b * 5 = 15

2.5 b = 14

b = 15/2.5

b = 6 feet.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

: Use the Pythagorean Theorem

${c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2}$

${c}^{2} = {5}^{2} + {12}^{2}$

${c}^{2} = 25 + 144$

${c}^{2} = 169$

$c = + 13$

If the end behavior is increasing on the left and decreasing on the right, which statement must be true about the function?

tatiyna

Answer:

The degree is even and the leading coefficient is negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the end behavior of the function is decreasing on the right, this means that x approaches positive infinity as y approaches negative infinity, which tells us that our leading coefficient is negative. Additionally, since our function is increasing on the left, then our function is even, which is symmetric to the origin.

8. A model airplane is shot into the air. Its path is approximated by the

rjkz [21]

Here is another one of those " quadratic word problems " at hand, which is great!

By the function that is given to us ( which I believe is meant to be $h(t) = - 5t^2 + 251$ ) the airplane is launched at a height of 251 metres, with no velocity. Anyhow, we need to determine the duration with which the airplane will strike the ground, and to do so we can set up the following equation, $- 5t^2 + 251 = 0$ - solving for t, otherwise known to be the time!
