19.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the traingle = 230.86 sq. inches

Height of the triangle = 23.8 sq. inches

We have,

Area of the triangle =  1/2bh

where,

b = base of the traingle

h = height of the triangle

Now, substituting the given info we get,

230.86 = 1/2b (23.8)

230.86 × 2/23.8 = b

b = 19.4

So, the base of the triangle is 19.4 inches

¿Cuál es la ecuación de la recta con pendiente -2 y el punto (4, 10)?
Sophie [7]

The general slope-intercept form equation is:

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ \text{Wher m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value} \end{gathered}

In this case, m=-2 and with the point (4, 10) we can find the value of b:

\begin{gathered} We\text{ evalute the equation in the point (x, y) = (4 , 10):} \\ 10=-2\cdot4+b \\ 10=-8+b \\ b=10+8=18 \end{gathered}

We found that b = 18, so:

y=-2x+18

Please Help!! This is Geometry.​
dolphi86 [110]

If M is the midpoint of PQ, then PM and MQ are equal.

As PM and MQ are given , equal them to each other to solve for x.

7x+8=5x+20

Subtract 5x on both sides to get 2x+8=20

Subtract 8 on both sides to get 2x=12

divide by 2 on both sides to get x=6

Use the value of x=6 and plug it into the equations for PM and MQ to find their value.

PM=7x+8

=7(6) 8 =42 + 8 = 50

(you can already tell MQ is also 50 as PM and MQ are equal, but we still solve for MQ just for the fun of it)

MQ=5x + 20

=5(6) +20=30+20=50

PM=50

MQ=50

PQ= PM + MQ= 50 + 50 = 100

Have a great night.

mei has 8 jars of soup .Each jar contains 300 milliliters of soup. What is the smallest pot Mei can use to heat all the soup
laiz [17]

Mei has 8 jars and each is 300ml

so she will need to times 8 by 300ml = 2400ml.

She needs a pot that holds 2400ml at least

(Actually, she needs a bigger pot because it needs to hold 2400ml so if the pot is that size the liquid will spill)
