Answer:

17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2(base)(height)

the base is seven less than twice the height, so

b = 2h-7

try to substitute for one of the variables, because it is much easier to solve for them.

b = 2h-7

b+7 = 2h

(b+7)/2 = h

Area = 102

102 = 1/2(b)(b+7)/2

408 = (b)(b+7)

408 = b^2+7b

b^2+7b-408=0

(b+24)(b-17)=0

b = -24 or b = 17

since length can't be a negative number, the length of the base is 17 cm

r^2 + 64 = 100

r^2 = 36

r = 6

The table shows a pattern of exponents.<br><br> What is the pattern as the exponents decrease?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the pattern as the exponent decreases.

the first value in the table is 125.

if we divide 125 by 5 i.e 125/5 we get 25

the next value in the table is 25

if we divide 25 by 5 i.e 25/5 we get 5

the next value in the table is 5

if we divide 5 by 5 i.e 5/5 we get 1

the next value in the table is 1

if we divide 1 by 5 i.e 1/5 we get 1/5

the next value in the table is 1/5

if we divide 1/5 by 5 i.e 1/5*5 we get 1/25

the next value in the table is 1/25

So, the pattern is if we divide the previous value by 5 we get the next value in the table.

So, Option C is correct.
