The height of a triangle is 2 less than 5 times its base. If the base of the triangle is x feet, and the area of the triangle is
12 square feet, which equation models this situation?
2 answers:
Answer:
12 = 1/2(x)(5x - 2)
Bonus solution for x = 2.4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
area = 1/2xh
h = 5x - 2
12 = 1/2(x)(5x - 2)
24 = 5x² - 2x
5x² - 2x - 24 = 0
x² - 0.4x - 4.8 = 0
(x - 2.4)(x + 2) = 0
x = 2.4
Answer:
5x^2 − 2x − 24 = 0

Answer:
x ≥ -6
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x-7 ≤ 11
-3x-7+7 ≤ 11+7
-3x ≤ 18
(-3x)(1) ≤ 18(-1)
3x ≤ -183x/3 ≤ -18/3
For this expression you replace p with 6 and you add 6 + 8 together and get 14.

Answer:
I guess this is the correct answer
Answer:
x=-20
Step-by-step explanation:
x-3/4x=3/10x-1
20x-15x=6x+20
5x=6x+20
5x-6x=20
-x=20
x=-20
