Answer: 84
Step-by-step explanation: 7 Times 12 because each foot is 12 inches
We are give the equation of the perimeter of the triangle as follows:
2a + b = 15.7
where b represents the base.
Now, if we want to calculate the length of the base, all we have to do is isolate the b in one side of the equation as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2a
We know that a = 6.3 cm, therefore, the length of the base can be calculated as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2(6.3) = 3.1 cm
You use the FOIL method, and how you do this is -
(x - 7) (x + 8)
Multiply the first x by both numbers in the second factor. Which means, you multiply x by x and 8, the two in (x + 8).
With this, you get -
x^2 + 8x
Then do the same thing with -7.
-7x - 56
Then combine the two.
x^2 + 8x - 7x - 56
Combine like terms.
x^2 + x - 56
So now, 7 x 8 is 56
And -7 + 8 would be 1. And that is the value of “x” which is b in the form a^2x + bx + c.
Now with this, you take those two numbers and make the factors =
(x + 8) (x - 7)
Then you set these equal to 0.
x + 8 = 0
Subtract the 8 from both sides.
x = -8
————
x - 7 = 0
Add the 7 on both sides.
x = 7
