4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 1/2 * 2b * (5b - 7)

Area = 1/2 * 2b * (5b - 7) = 24

b * (5b - 7) = 24

5b^2 - 7b = 24

5b^2 - 7b - 24= 0

(b- 3 )(5b + 8) = 0

b = 3                    This the only solution that works.  b can't be minus

The base is 2b or 2 * 3 = 6

Find the two inequalities that define the region on the grid that is not shaded
hoa [83]

Answer:

y 》 2

y > -x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the bold line:

m = (-3/3) = -1

y = -x + 3

Shaded region is below y=2 (dotted)

So, it's defined by y < 2

Also, it's below the bold line

y 《 - x + 3

Everything outside these is not shaded:

y 》2

and y > -x + 3

A geometric sequence has an initial value of 2 and a common ratio of 3. Which formula would be more practical to use if you were
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

19th term = ar^18

19th term = 774,840,978

Step-by-step explanation:

First term, a = 2

Common ratio, r = 3

nth term of a geometric sequence = ar^(n-1)

19th term = ar^(19-1)

19th term = ar^18

= 2 × 3^18

= 2 × 387,420,489

= 774,840,978

19th term = 774,840,978
