Answer:

Remember that a triangle's area is bh/2, where

b = base

h = height

So. You start with a triangle of base b and height h, add 2 to the height, and get a triangle of area 82.5.

b(h+2)/2 = 82.5

b(h+2) = 165

What you want to do from here is test the b and h from the choices given, and figure out which b and h satisfy this.

(a) If b=13 and h=15, b(h+2) = 221 nope.

(b) If b=9 and h=11, b(h+2) = 117 nope.

(c) If b=11 and h=13, b(h+2) = 165 that's it!

For 7/8 x 2/3 = the answer in simplest form, so we do the repricoral?
stiks02 [169]
Hello, so a simple way to do it is to cross cancel and then you would end up with 7/4 x 1/3 and it would equal 7/12 and that’s in simplest form.

–3 = –2x2 + 2x
wel

Answer:

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.

0 = –2x2 + 2x + 3

–3 = –2x2 + 2x

–3 = –2(x2 – x)

–3 + = –2(x2 – x + )

StartFraction negative 7 Over 2 EndFraction = –2(x – StartFraction 1 Over 2 EndFraction)2

StartFraction 7 Over 4 EndFraction = (x – StartFraction 1 Over 2 EndFraction)2

The two solutions are Plus or minus StartFraction StartRoot 7 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction

-7/2 = -2(x - ½)²

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = –2x^2 + 2x + 3

Subtract 3 from each side

-3 = –2x^2 + 2x

Factor out the -2

-3 =- 2(x^2 -x)

Take the coefficient of x and divide by 2 and square it

-1 /2 = -1/2 ^2 = 1/4

Add it to each side  Remember the -2 on the outside so we need to multiply it by -2  

-2 *1/4 =  -1/2

-3 -1/2= -2(x^2 -x +1/4)

-7/2 = -2(x^2 -x +1/4)

-7/2 = -2(x-1/2)^2

7/2 = -2(x - ½)²

HELP ASAP this was due Friday I don't understand how please show work find center and radius​
Tamiku [17]

Answer:The center-radius form of the circle equation is in the format (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2, with the center being at the point (h, k) and the radius being "r". This form of the equation is helpful, since you can easily find the center and the radius. hoped it helped :)

(2+4x)(2-4x)<br> How can I solve it
vitfil [10]

Answer:

The solutions are x = -1/2  and  x = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(2+4x)(2-4x)

We can use the zero product property to solve this

(2+4x)(2-4x)=0

The we set each term = 0

2+4x =0    2-4x =0

Subtract 2 from each side

2-2+4x = 0-2      2-2-4x = 0-2

4x = -2         -4x = -2

The divide the left equation by 4   and the right equation by -4

4x/4 = -2/4       -4x/-4 = -2/-4

x = -1/2               x = 1/2

The solutions are x = -1/2  and  x = 1/2
