Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
A) Height -7 = base
B) .5 * height * base = 60
Substituting A into B
B) .5 * height * (height -7) = 60
B) .5*height^2 -3.5*height = 60
B) .5*height^2 -3.5*height -60 = 0
Using the quadratic formula:
Height = 15
Subtracting 7 gives us the base length
Base = 8
**************************************************************
Double-Check
.5 * 15 * 8 = 60
surface area = (2)(5)(13)+(13)(10)+(12)(10)
So remember that in a quadratic equation there is a type of quadratic equation of the form ax^2+bx+c=0 so to find what values of a, b, and c you need for the quadratic formula, you need to look at your equation and label a, b, and c. In this equation a=6, b=5 and c=-4. So for the quadratic formula you would use a=6, b=5 and C=-4. I hope this helps!!!!!
Answer:
8m+125 because 2^3 is 8 and m just stays the same and 5^3 is 125 so it is 8m+125
