Answer:
1) 18m²
2) 25cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
- a = ½ × b × h
- a = ½ × 9 × 4
- a = ½ × 36
- a = 18m²
2)
- a = ½ × b × h
- a = ½ × 10 × 5
- a = 5 × 5
- a = 25 cm²
Let the width be : x
length : (2x - 6)
(2x - 6) (x) = 2x square - 6x
2x square - 6x = 140
2x square - 6x - 140 = 0
if you use the cross method or calculator you’ll get :
( x - 10 ) ( x + 7) = 0
x = 10 or x = -7 ( reject because negative )
so we use x = 10.
width = 10
length = 2(10) - 6 = 14
40% is close to 50% which is = to 1/2
So just divide 60 by 2. which would be around 30
this is the best way i could explain, I hope this helps
