Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

<u>Givens</u>

b1 = 265

b2 = 180

h  = 90

<u>Formula</u>

Area = (b1 + b2)*h / 2

<u>Solution</u>

Area = (265 + 180) * 90 / 2

Area = 445 * 90 / 2

Area = 40050 / 2

Area = 20025 square meters

Part B

1 hectare = 10000 square meters

x hectare = 20025 square meters         Cross multiply

x * 10000 = 20025 * 1                             Divide by 10000

x  = 20025 / 10000

x = 2.0025

Rounded to the nearest hectare that would be 2

Part C

The best shape is a square.

That would mean that the area is given by

s^2 = 20025

sqrt(s^2) = sqrt(20025)

s = 141.51

Each side of the rectangle (square) = 141.51

6x2-30=0
agasfer [191]

The quadratic form is ax^2 + bx + c

The given equation is 6x^2 -30 = 0

a = 6 because it is with x^2.

There is no x term in the equation so b is 0

c is the numerical term with no variable so c = -30

a = 6

b = 0

c =-30
