In the chart of the triangle it shows that the variable b is the base. It also give us the equation for area 1/2bh (half of base * height)
Now we just plug in the values we are given
1/2bh
1/2(10*13)
1/2(130)
65
The area of the triangle is 65 ft
Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5
5x+1(6-4) = +1(5x6)-(5x)
this would be a hard question to answer but i think i can do it ((( nNOTTTT))))
