Answer:</h2><h2>
The height of the triangle = 4cm</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given, area of the triangle = 10 
Let the height of the triangle be h cm
Given, the base b is 3 cm less than twice its height.
b = 2h - 3 ... (1)
By formula, area of the triangle =
bh .. (2)
substitute (1)in (2), we get
Area =
(2h-3) h
10 =
(2h-3) h
20 = 
- 20 = 0
solving the equation, we get x = 4, -2.5
The height of the triangle = 4cm
A rational number is any number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction
keeping in mind that

x = percent rate for the 17000 investment.
y = percent rate for the 11000 investment.
so the amount for the 17000 interest will just be (x/100) * 17000, or namely 170x.
and the amount of interest earned for the 11000 is (y/100) * 11000, or just 110y.
now, regardless of what "x" and "y" are, we know that the interest from the 17000 is higher by 308 bucks, therefore 170x = 110y + 308.
we also know that the rate of <u>x</u> is higher as well than <u>y</u> by 0.4%, so then x = y + 0.4.

Answer:
8x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
change it around
9-5 5x+3x.
9-5=4, 5x+3x=8x.
4+8x or 8x+4
