Area=1/2 times base times height
note:bh=base times height
a=1/2bh
b=width
h=-4+2w
h=2w-4
subsitute
a=1/2w(2w-4)
a=1/2(2s^2-4w)
a=w^2-2w
a=63
63=w^2-2w
subtract 63 from both sdies
0=w^2-2w-63
factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -63 and add to get -2
the numbers are -9 and 7
so
0=(w-9)(w+7)
if xy=0 then x and/or y=0
so
w-9=0
w+7=0
solve each
w-9=0
add 9 to both sdies
w=9
w+7=0
subtract 7 from both sides
w=-7
width cannot be negative so this can be discarded
width=9
subsitute
l=2w-4
l=2(9)-4
l=18-4
l=14
legnth=14 in
width/base=9 in
Look at the picture.
We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.
We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.
Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90
Substitute (1) to (2):
40 + 17x - y = 90 <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>
17x - y = 50 (3)
We have the system of equations:
Substitute the value of x to (3)
Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
Answer:
c = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
It would just be the square root of 10y
so 10y under a radical. Assuming the y is to the power of 1/2
Answer: Abraham could run 8 miles each day for 3 days and get 24. He could run 6 miles each day for 4 days and get 24.
Abraham can run 10 miles each day for 3 days and get 30 or he could run 7.5 miles a day for 4 days and get 30.
Not sure if this is the answer it wants or not
