It would b C because there are 6 sides and out of the 6, you want one number, which is 4, so that’s why it would be C

The height of a triangular window is 3 feet less than its base. The area the window is 20 ft.? find the dimensions of the window

Ivenika [448]

Let us assume base of the window = b feet.

Height is 3 feet less than base, that is = (b-3).

Given area of the triangle = 20 feet square.

We know formula for area of a triangle:

Area = $\frac{1}{2}$ × Base × Height

Plugging values in formula, we get

20 = $\frac{1}{2} b \times (b-3)$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}2$

$40=b\left(b-3\right)$

$40=b^2-3b$

$b^2-3b-40=0$

Factoring quadratic, we get

$\left(b+5\right)\left(b-8\right)$ =0

b+5=0

b=-5

b-8=0

b=8.

For base we can take only positive value.

<h3>Therefore, base of the triangle = 8 feet and height = 8 -3 = 5 feet.</h3>

The area of a rectangle is 27 m^2 , and the length of the rectangle is 3 m less than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the

vagabundo [1.1K]

Let $L$ be the length of the rectangle and $W$ be the width. In the problem it is given that $L=2W-3$ . It is also given that the area $LW=27$ . Substituting in the length in terms of width, we have $W(2W-3)=27 \\ 2W^2-3W-27=0 \\ (2W-9)(W+3)=0$ . Using the zero product property, $2W-9=0 \text{ or } W+3=0$ . Solving these we get the width $W=4.5 \text{ or } -3$ . However, it doesn't make sense for the width to be negative, so the width must be $\boxed{4.5 \text{ m}}$ . From that we can tell the length $L=2(4.5)-3=\boxed{6 \text{ m}}$ .
