Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: b = 4, h = 13
Discussion:
For a triangle with base b" and height "h, the area formula is
A= (1/2)bh.
In our case A = 26, h = 5b-7, so
26 = (1/2) b (5b-7). Multiply both sides by 2:
26*2 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = 5b^2 - 7b => (subtract 52 from both sides)
5b^2 - 7b - 52 = 0. This factors as follows:
(b - 4) (5 b + 13) = 0 (use quadratic formula to find this)
so b = 4 and h = 5b -7 = 5*4 - 7 = 13
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that John wants to find the center of a wall so he can hang a picture. So, John measures the wall and <u>determines</u> it is 65.25 inches wide. Since John has determined that the wall measures a particular amount that means that John has <u>quantified</u> the width of the wall, which in this case comes out to be 65.25 inches.
Again, this is a single number. This means that the width of the wall is a <u>discrete</u> quantity.
Thus, 65.25 inches or 65.25" is a Quantitative and Discrete type of data. Thus, out of the given options, the first option is the correct one.
Answer:
x = 0 and x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A football is kicked into the air. The height of the football can be modeled by the equation :

Where
h is the height reached by the ball after x seconds
When it touches the ground, h = 0
So,

So, it will touch the ground at x = 0 and x = 1 seconds.
