I am pretty sure it is 30. Hope it helps!!
Answer:
Area is 154 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Well lets think about this
If I take a rectangle and cut it into half diagonally I would get 2 triangles right?
So if I have 2 triangles of the same height and base I can make a rectangle
to find the area of a rectangle I do length times width
So lets take our scalene triangle and multiply our base with its width and then divide by 2
22*14 = 308
308/2 is 154
Answer:
y = 4000/x²
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the building is expressed as;
V = x²y where;
x is the length and width of the base.
y is the height of the building
Given
Volume V = 4000m³
Substitute the given volume into the equation as shown;
4000 = x²y
Make y the subject of the formula by dividing both sides by x²
4000/x² = x²y/x²
4000/x² = y
Rearrange
y = 4000/x²
Hence equation for y, the height of the building, in terms of x, the length and width of the base is expressed as y = 4000/x²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 4
f(x + a) = (x + a)^2 + 4(x + a) + 4
f(x + a) = x^2 + 2ax + a^2 + 4x + 4a + 4 Now combine like terms and use the distributive property.
f(x + a) = x^2 + (2a + 4)x + a^2 + 4a + 4
We are told that f(x + a) = x^2 - 6x + 9
So that means that
2a + 4 = - 6 Subtract 4 from both sides.
2a = - 6 - 4
2a = - 10 Divide by 2
a = - 10/2
a = - 5.
But you are not finished. You have to check the last part.
a^2 + 4x + 4 = 9
(a + 2)^2 = 9
Take the square root of both sides
sqrt(a+ 2)^2 = +/- 3
a+2 = 3
a = 1.
Does this work or is it extraneous? It is extraneous because it will not work for 2(a) + 4 = - 6
You get 6 = - 6 which is not correct. But you did give the second best answer.
a + 2 = - 3
a = - 3 - 2
a = - 5 which agrees with your previous answer.
===========
This is an extremely hard or tricky or sneaky problem. It takes a lot of conniving to get the right answer and 1 is not a left field answer. It just does not happen to be correct.
