Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let base be b, height be h

h = 7+b or we can say that b = h -7

A = 15 cm²

General formula for area of a triangle

A = b · h

Substitute what we know to find the height h

15 = (h-7) · h

15 = h² -7h

0 = h²-7h -15

h = (7 ±√49 + 4·1·15)/2

h = (7 ±√109)/2

h ≈ -1.72 reject this solution because height cannot be negative

h ≈ 8.72 cm

(0,0)(12,84)
slope = (84 - 0) / (12 - 0) = 84/12 = 7

it goes thru the origin (0,0) therefore, the y int = 0

In y = mx + b form, the slope will be in the m position and the y int will be in the b position.

ur equaton is : y = 7x + 0, which can also be written as y = 7x <==

Robert climbed 775 steps and 12 1/2 minutes. How many steps did he average per minute?
UNO [17]

Answer:

Since the question requires you to give the answer in terms of steps/minute, the first step would be to convert hours to minutes: 12.5 hours = 750 minutes. Next, if he took 775 steps in 750 minutes, how many would he take in 1 minute? This requires you to set up the question as a proportion: (775 steps/ 750 minutes) = (x steps/1 minute)

Answer:

Down 4 unit (see discussion, could be right 4 units)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x

G(x) = x - 4

Discussion:

if f(x) = x      g(x) = f(x-4) = x-4  ... shift to right 4 units

or g(x) = f(x) - 4 = x -4    ... shift down 4 units
