Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: b = 4, h = 13
Discussion:
For a triangle with base b" and height "h, the area formula is
A= (1/2)bh.
In our case A = 26, h = 5b-7, so
26 = (1/2) b (5b-7). Multiply both sides by 2:
26*2 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = b(5b-7) =>
52 = 5b^2 - 7b => (subtract 52 from both sides)
5b^2 - 7b - 52 = 0. This factors as follows:
(b - 4) (5 b + 13) = 0 (use quadratic formula to find this)
so b = 4 and h = 5b -7 = 5*4 - 7 = 13
Thank you,
MrB
<u>Answer:</u>
The correct answer option is D. (x - 7) + 2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are to determine whether which of the given options best describe the English expression:
<em>'two more than the quantity of a number minus seven'</em>
We can break this expression into smaller chunks to make it easier to translate.
1. two more than ---> +2
2. the quantity of a number ---> suppose the number to be 'x'
3. number minus 7 ---> (x - 7)
Combining these, we get (x - 7) + 2 so the correct answer option is D.
Answer: y = 4 and x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
when y is 2, x is 0.5
when y is 4, x is 1
.(+ 2) .(+ 0.5)
.(+ 2) .(+ 0.5)
.(+ 2) .(+ 0.5)
.(+ 2) .(+ 0.5)
the rule is that y is 4 times larger than x
