Answer:
Base = 10 cm
Height = 60 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a triangle is
, where <em>b</em> is the length of the base of the triangle, and <em>h</em> is the length of the height of the triangle.
We know the area is 300, and since the height of the triangle is 6 times its base, we know that
. We can plug in these values into our formula for the area of a triangle, which gives us the following equation to solve:



The base of the triangle is 10 centimeters.
Now that we know the base of the triangle, we can plug its value in to the original formula to solve for the height of the triangle, which gives us the following equation:



The height of the triangle is 60 centimeters.
28x + 44y = 964.40
21x + 33y = 723.30
Let's multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by -4
84x + 176y = 3857.6
-84x - 132y = -2893.2
Add the equations together.
0 + 44y = 964.4
Simplify
44y = 964.4
Divide both sides by 44
y = 964.4/44
Since we have the value of y, let's plug 964.4/44 into y for the first equation.
28x + 44(964.4/44) = 964.40
Simplify the left side
28x + 964.4 = 964.4
Subtract 964.4 from both sides
28x = 0
Divide both sides by 0
x = 0
In conclusion,
y = 964.4/44
x = 0
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to solve this is by subtracting 2x from both sides. Now we have
2x-5=7
Then we add 5 from both sides. Now we have
2x=12
We do this because we want X by itself
Then we divide by 2 on both sides and now we have
x = 6
