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
He length of time, in minutes, for and airplane to obtain clearance for take off at a certain airport is a random variable Y=3X-2, where x has the density funct

Answer:
3 hours 40 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that we have 1320 garments and it takes an employee 20 seconds to tag a garment.
1 employee tags one garment in 20 seconds.
So garments tagged by 1 employees in 1 minute will be 
garments.
2 employees will tag 3*2=6 garments in 1 minute.
To find the total time it will take two employees to tag all the garments we will divide total number of garments by 6.
Therefore, it will take 220 minutes or 3 hours and 40 minutes for 2 employees to tag 1320 garments.
