The base is 3+(x), altitude is x so substitute. Now we know the area of a triangle is base X height X 1/2. Substitute again! 1/2 (3+x)(x)=35. Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel out the 1/2. Now you have (x)(x+3)=70 and you have to foil out the left side x^2+3x=70. Subtract 70 on both sides x^2+3x-70=0. Find two numbers that multiply to -70 and add to 3. Solve (x+10)(x-7)=0. the x value is 7. since you can't have negative length values. Substitute 7 into 3+x for the base so you know the base is 10 and the height is 7.
Answer:
17 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a square has 4 sides, you have to do 68 / 4 to find one of the sides.
68/4 = 17
And to check, if you add up all sides...
17+17+17+17 = 68
These are fractions? Like 13/20 and 7/10? Is so the symbol would be 13/20 < 7/10 because 7/10 is a higher fraction than 13/20
First you do -13+9. That equals -4.
Then bring down -c=-4 because there is a 1 in front of the c so -1c.
Next divide both sides by -1. The -c side cancels out so then your left with -4/-1.
That equals positive 4.
C=4
That’s ur answer.
