12x^3 +2x^2-30x = 8
2x( 6x^2 +x -15) = 8
so 2x= 8, x=4
(2x) ( 2x-3) ( 3x+5) = 8
2x-3 = 8
2x= 11
x= 5.5
3x+5=8
3x= 3
x=1

Answer: w = 31</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
For any triangle, the interior angles always add to 180
(angle1)+(angle2)+(angle3) = 180
(w) + (4w-6) + (w) = 180
(w+4w+w) - 6 = 180
6w - 6 = 180
6w - 6+6 = 180+6 .... adding 6 to both sides
6w = 186
6w/6 = 186/6 ..... divide both sides by 6
w = 31
------------------------------------
Extra info:
This value of w leads to
4w-6 = 4*31-6 = 118
The three angles of the triangle are: 31, 118, 31
Because we have two congruent angles, this means the triangle is isosceles. The sides opposite the congruent angles are the same length.
Answer:
The area of ∆DEF = 4.5in²
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above diagram,
∆BAC ~∆DEF
It is important to note that if two triangles are similar, the ratio of their areas is equal or equivalent to the ratio of the areas of their sides
This means for the above question, that
We have the bigger triangle = ∆BAC has a side of 4 in and Area = 8 in²
The small triangle has a side of 3in
Finding the scale factor k = ratio of the sides of both Triangles
k = 4/3
k² = (4/3)²
k² = 16/9
Hence,
Area of ∆BAC/ Area of ∆DEF = 16/9
8in²/Area of ∆DEF = 16/9
We cross Multiply
8 in² × 9 = Area of ∆DEF × 16
Divide both sides by 16
Area of ∆DEF = 72/16
= 4.5in²
Therefore, the Area of ∆DEF rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5in²
