Answer:
A. 5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The base is x feet.
The height is 2 less that 5 times the base.
The height is 5x - 2.
The area is 12.
The area is base * height / 2.
area = bh/2
area = x * (5x - 2) = 12
5x^2 - 2x = 12
5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0
answer: infinitely many :)
Well, if y = x - 5, then we calculate:
when x = -1 then y = -1 -5 = -6
when x = 0 then y = -5
when x = 1 then y = 1 - 5 = -4
when x = 2 then y = 2 - 5 = -3
Hope this helps!
