A carpenter is making a backyard deck. In the measurements, he has determined that he needs to make a support triangle with an a

rea 36m2. He knows that the base must be 1 less than 2 times the height. Find the equation that correctly shows the area of the triangle.
A. x(2x - 1) = 36
B. 1/2x(2x - 1) = 36
C. 1/2x(2x - 1) = 18
D. x(2x - 1) = 18

Answer:

Equation for area = 36 = [1/2]x[2x - 1]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of triangle = 36 m²

Length of base = 2(Height) - 1

Find:

Equation for area

Computation:

Assume;

Height = x

Area of triangle = (1/2)(b)(h)

36 = (1/2)[2(x) - 1][x]

36 = [1/2]x[2x - 1]

Equation for area = 36 = [1/2]x[2x - 1]

From a point T on a horizontal ground, the angle of
grin007 [14]

Answer:

distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point T is on the horizontal ground and the angle of elevation of the top R of a tower is 63° and the height of the tower is 38 m high. The illustration forms  a right angle triangle. The height RS of the tower is the opposite side of the triangle formed. The hypotenuse side of the triangle is the point from the ground T to the top of the tower R.  The adjacent side of the triangle is the side TS.

using tangential ratio

tan 63° = opposite/adjacent

tan 63° = 38/adjacent

cross multiply

adjacent tan 63° = 38

divide both sides by tan 63°

adjacent side = 38/tan 63°

adjacent side = 38/1.96261050551

adjacent side = 19.3619670807

distance TS ≈ 19 m (nearest meter)

-3B+5=13<br> How do I solve for B
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

b = -2 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, b. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 5 from both sides:

-3b + 5 (-5) = 13 (-5)

-3b = 13 - 5

-3b = 8

Next, divide -3 from both sides:

(-3b)/-3 = (8)/-3

b = -8/3

b = -2 2/3

A barbecue sold 26 hamburgers and hot dogs. Hamburgers sell for $3.50 each and hot dogs sell for $2.00 each. If the barbecue mad
Angelina_Jolie [31]

x => Hamburgers

y => Hot dogs


x + y = 26

3.5x + 2y = 70


-2x - 2y = -52

3.5x + 2y = 70

-----------------------

1.5x = 18

x = 18 / 1.5 = 12

y = 26 - 12 = 14


They sold 12 hamburgers and 14 hot dogs
