The transformation is : rotation because the two figures have the same measures
Answer:
4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>,
Area of the triangle = 1/4 square meters
From the diagram,
Height = 2/5 m
<u>To find</u> : Length of the base
<u>Formula</u> : -
A = bh/2
Here,
A denotes Area
b denotes Base
h denotes Height
A = 1/4
h = 2/5
A = bh/2
Cross multiply,
A * 2 = bh
2A = bh
2 * (1/4) = b * (2/5)
(1 * 2)/4 = (b * 2)/5
2/4 = 2b/5
1/2 = 2b/5
Cross multiply,
1 * 5 = 2 * 2b
5 = 4b
b = 4/5 meters
Hence,
The length of the base is 4/5 meters.
12/35 is simplified, as you cannot divide it into smaller numbers by a common factor.
I hope this helps!
Move variable to left hand side and change its sign, divide both side of the equation by 0.504
Answer:
57 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent Bob's speed on the trip. Then his time is ...
time = distance/speed
Bob's time = 230/b
Then John's speed is b+8, and his time is ...
John's time = 230/(b+8)
The difference of their times is 1/2 hour:
Bob's time - John's time = 1/2
230/b -230/(b+8) = 1/2 . . . substitute the expressions for time
460(b+8 -b) = b(b+8) . . . . . multiply by 2b(b+8)
b^2 +8b -3680 = 0 . . . . . . .put in standard form
(b +4)^2 -3696 = 0 . . . . . . . add 16-16 to complete the square
b = -4 +√3696 ≈ 56.795 . . . solve for positive b
Bob's drove about 57 mph on the trip.
