The base length of the triangle is 10 ft. and the height of the triangle is 20ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Height = base + 10
Area = 100 square ft
Area of a triangle= (1/2) (b) (h)
100 = (1/2) (b) (b + 10)
200 = b(b) + 10b
b(b) + 10b - 200 = 0
b(b) + 20b - 10b - 200 = 0
b ( b + 20) -10(b + 20) = 0
(b-10) (b+20) =0
b = 10 (or) b = -20
Here b is the length and cannot be negative.
So, b = 10ft
h = b + 10
h = 10 + 10
h = 20 ft.
The base length of the triangle is 10 ft. and the height of the triangle is 20ft.
EXPLANATION:
To get the solution of the simultaneous equation, using the elimination method:
We will have the following steps:

Therefore, the answer is
Thus,
Option B is correct
Answer:11
Step-by-step explanation
The equation is that of a parabola, meaning that the maximum (or sometimes minimum) is 1/2 the sum of the solutions found using the quadratic equation.
y = 0 for the 2 solutions to {-b +/- sqrt[b2 - 4ac]} / 2a, where a = -3, b = 152 and c = -1150 from the equation for y. Plug a, b and c into the quadratic formula to get x = 9.2571 and x = 41.4095 as the 2 solutions.
9.2571 + 41.4095 = 50.6666... and the midpoint is 25.3333...
When x = 25.3333..., y = 775.33333.....
To the nearest cent, x=25.33 results in a profit of 775.33.
When x=25.25, Y = 775.31
When x=25.4, Y = 775.32
These are both less than 775.33 when x = 25.33.
