Answer:
6.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Although there's multiple ways to solve this problem, my method will be to simply find the area for the full triangle (the empty + orange triangles) and subtract the area of the smaller, empty triangle.
Now, you that area for a triangle is 1/2*base*height.
To find the measurements for the full triangle, you must add up the bases for the two smaller triangles:

Height is the same for both triangles so Height total = 4 ft.
Now the total area can be calculated:
Area total= 1/2* base_total * height_total
Area total = 1/2 * 5ft * 4 ft
Area total = 20 / 2 = 10 ft squared
Lastly, subtract the area of the empty triangle from the total triangle to find the orange triangle.
Area Empty Triangle = 1/2 * base_empty * height_empty
Area Empty Triangle = 1/2 * 1.9ft * 4 ft = 7.6 ft / 2 = 3.8 ft squared
Area total - Area empty = 10ft^2 - 3.8ft^2 = 6.2 ft squared
Answer:
Equation: y =
x
21/2 cups of water
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in 7 as y and 4 as x
7 = 4k
Find k
k = 7/4
Then plug k into th equation
y = 7/4 x
For the second part of the question:
Plug in x which is 6 into the bolded equation.
y = (7/4)(6) = 42/4 = 21/2 (simplified form)
21/2 cups of water
The consecutive positive integers would be: x and (x+1),
We would have to solve the following equation to find these numbers:
x(x+1)-[x+(x+1)]=29
x²+x-2x-1=29
x²-x-30=0
x=[1⁺₋√(1+120)]/2
x=(1⁺₋11)/2
We have two possible solutions:
x₁=(1-11)/2=-5 then: (x+1)=-5+1=-4 This is not the solution.
x₂=(1+11)/2=6 then: (x+1)=6+1=7 This solution is right.
Answer: the numbers would be 6 and 7.
The correct answer is 1/4(n - 64).

I hope this helps!
5-x=12
Subtract 5 on both sides -1x=7 than divide 7 by -1 and you get x=-7
