Answer:
A. 5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
height = 5b-2
b =x
We can rewrite the height as
h = 5x-2
We know the formula for area of a triangle
A = 1/2 bh
A =1/2 x * (5x-2)
Distributing the x
A= 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
We know A =12
12 = 1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
Multiply each side by 2
12*2 = 2*1/2 (5x^2 - 2x)
24 = 5x^2 - 2x
Subtract 24 from each side
24-24 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
0 = 5x^2 - 2x-24
672,591 is your current number. So find the number in the hundred-thousand place, which is 6. Now go to the number that is on its right. So next to the 6 is 7. That means it goes up. So your answer would be about 700,000.
