Let the base be b. Then the height is b-4. So:
1/2(b)(b-4)=6
b²-4b-12=0
(b-6)(b+2)=0
b=6
b-4=2

What is the solution of the following system of equations ? y- 2x and= 6 , y - 4x =0
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

x=3 and y=12

Step-by-step explanation:

y-2x=6     equation:1

y-4x=0     equation:2

Solving equation:1 for 'y' in terms of x

y=6+2x      equation:3

Putting 'y' in equation:2 which will make the equation of the single variable

y-4x=0

6+2x-4x=0\\-2x=-6\\x=3

Putting value of 'x' in equation:3 to find 'y'

y=6+2x

y=6+2(3)\\y=6+6\\y=12
