Answer:
height = 12 cm
base length = 4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a triangle
base length × height / 2
x = height
y = base length
x = y + 8
24 = y × (y + 8) / 2
48 = y × (y + 8) = y² + 8y
squared equation
y² + 8y - 48 = 0
solution
y = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
a = 1
b = 8
c = -48
y = (-8 ± sqrt(64 - 4×-48))/2 = (-8 ± sqrt(64 + 192))/2 =
= (-8 ± sqrt(256))/2 = (-8 ± 16)/2 = -4 ± 8
y1 = -4 + 8 = 4 cm
y2 = -4 - 8 = -12
but a negative base length did not make any sense, so only y = 4 remains.
x = y + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12 cm
Answer:
26.25 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A percentage is simply a ratio of the whole. If we assume 35 feet to be 100%, or the whole, then we can say the following:
0.75 * 35 == 26.25
Hence, 75% of 35 feet is 26.25 feet.
Cheers.
Q1: The perimeter of the triangle is a + b + c and if each side is the same then it's 3a. In this situation we may write it in its simplest form as 9m. Note that 3(3m) is also correct but it's not the simplest form.
Q2: You're correct, the distributive property of 3(3m) can be written as 3 (2m + m).
Answer:
7/25
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to determine how many total marbles
9blue+7red+4green+5purple = 25 marbles
P(red) = red/total
= 7/25
