Answer:
Area A = 12 = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)
5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0
Solution;
Base x = 2.4
Height h = 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
base of the triangle is x feet;
Base = x
The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times it's base;
Height = 5x - 2
the area of the triangle is 12 square feet;
Area A = 12 ft^2
The area of a triangle is;
Area A = 1/2 × base × height
Substituting the base and height;;
Area A = 1/2 × x × (5x-2)
Area A = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)
Area A = 12
12 = 1/2 × (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply through by 2.
24 = (5x^2 - 2x)
5x^2 - 2x -24 = 0
Solving the simultaneous equation;
x = 2.4 or -2
Since the base cannot be negative;
x = 2.4 ft
Height h = 5x -2 = 5(2.4) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10 ft
Base x = 2.4
Height h = 10 ft
Answer:
third one passes through the slope .
You have 28 meters of fence to make 3 sides.
28/3 = 9.3333
The pen will be 9.3333 by 9.3333 meters
Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
6x - 5 = 5x + 3
6x - 5x = 3 + 5 (combining like-terms)
x = 8
Hope this helps!
Answer:
OD.(x-3)(x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
we need two numbers (negative ir positive) that multiply to get 6 abd add to get -5.
so its OD
as -3×-2=6
and -3+-2=-5
