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

george completed 3/5th of work in 9 days with the help of paul he completes remaining work in 4 days.In how many days paul alone
IRINA_888 [86]
If George completed 3/5 of work in 9 days, it means that he needs 3 days to finish 1/5th of the work.

The remaining part is 2/5 because 1-3/5=2/5. 2/5 is also 6/15

From this, how much did George do? in the first 3 days he did 1/5th and then one more day was left, during which he did 1/5/3=1/15th.

So he did in total 1/15+1/5=1/15+3/15=4/15.
this means that Paul did the rest of 6/15, so Paul did 6/15-4/15=2/15.

So we know that he does 2/15 in 4 days, which means that every two days he can do 1/15 of the work

so he would need 15 times 2 days to finish the work - 30 days!

What is the value of the expression 2^2 + 4^2 ÷ 2^2? 3 6 8 16
slamgirl [31]
The answer is 8 because you use the order of operations. So it would be 16 divided by 4, then you would do 4+4 which is 8

Find the measure of angle x in the figure below<br>67 61<br>у<br>X<br>67​
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: y67

Step-by-step explanation:5n − 19 + n + 7 = 144 − 6n

6n − 12 = 144 − 6n

12n = 156

n = 13

m∠z = (144−6n)°

m∠z = (144−6×13)°

m∠z = y67
