Answer:
he height of a triangle is 8m less than the base. The area is 10cm^2. Find the height and the base.
I have tried the equation 10=b(b-8)(1/2).
b(b-8) = 20
b^2 - 8b - 20 = 0
Factor:
b^2-10b + 2b-20 = 0
You can tell that there is only 1 solution because it is a linear system of equations. If you are not convinced, work it out yourself. :)
Hope this helps

Answer:
Jeff got 20 answers right.
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of points Jeff can get is 100. (25 * 4) However, for each question he gets wrong, he's actually losing 6 points because he doesn't get the four points for getting right, and has the additional -2 points for getting it wrong. Since he only got a score of 70, that means he lost 30 points.
30/6 = 5. So he missed 5 question and got 20 question right.
No, because both can be divided by two. in simplist form it is 3 1/9
