Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

AREA: 42 cm^2

h = 14 cm

area of a triangle formula:

$\frac{height * base}{2} \\\frac{14 * base}{2} = 42$

(14)(base) = 42 * 2

(14)(base) /14 = 84 /14

base = 6 cm

Solve x2 – 4x – 9 = 29 for x.

Irina-Kira [14]

$x^2 - 4x - 9 = 29 \\ x^2 - 4x - 9 - 29 = 0 \\ x^2 - 4x - 38 = 0 \\ x= \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{ b^{2} -4ac} }{2a} 
$ ; where a = 1, b = -4 and c = -38
$x= \frac{-(-4) \pm 
\sqrt{ 
(-4)^{2} -4 \times 1 \times -38} }{2 \times 1} \\ = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ 16 +152} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm \sqrt{ 168} }{2} \\ =\frac{4 \pm 
2\sqrt{42} }{2} \\ 
=2+\sqrt{42} \ or \ 2-\sqrt{42}\\=8.48 \ or \ -4.48$
