To solve for the area of a triangle, we multiply the length and height, then divide that by two. L = 10. H = 7.
To solve for the perimeter, or edges, of the triangle, we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c² to solve for the third side. We already know two measures: 10 and 7. Now we need to square them, add them together to get c², then take the root of that number.
We cannot simplify √149, so we either leave it, or round it.
This is rounded to the nearest 10,000.
Now that we have the measure of the longest side, we can add all three sides together to get the perimeter of the triangle.
Answer:
10.6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = 22ft
width= 14ft
Maximum area = 800 sq. ft
Let X be increase in the number of feet for the length and width.
The new length = (22 + x) ft
New width= (14 + x) ft
Area = (22+x)(14+x) ≤ 800
308 + 36x + x^2 ≤ 800
x^2 + 36x + 308 - 800 ≤ 0
x^2 + 36x - 492 ≤ 0
Solve using quadratic equation
x = (-b +/- √b^2 - 4ac) / 2a
a= 1, b = 36, c= 492
x = (-36 +/- √36^2 - 4*1*-492)/ 2*1
= (-36 +/- √1396 + 1968) / 2
= (-36 +/- √3264) / 2
= (-36 +/- 57.13) / 2
x = (-36 + 57.13)/2 or (-36 - 57.13)/2
x = 21.13/2 or -93.13/2
x = 10.6 or -31.0
x = 10.6 ft
The length and width must increase by 10.6 ft each
Hello!
The x intercept is when the y value is 0
Put 0 in for y to get the x-intercepts
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part A
3x + 2y = 7
Put 0 in for y
3x + 2(0) = 7
Simplify
3x = 7
Divide both sides by 3
x = 2.333...
The x-intercept is at the point (2.333, 0)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Part B
2x + 3y = 7
Put 0 in for y
2x + 3(0) = 7
Simplify
2x = 7
Divide both sides by 2
x = 3.5
The x-intercept is at the point (3.5, 0)

Hope this helps!
