The height of a triangle is 3 feet greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 54 square feet. Find the length of the base and the height of the triangle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The length of the base is 3 feet and the height of the triangle is 6 feet.

What is the area of a triangle?

Triangle is a shape made of three sides in a two-dimensional plane. the sum of the three angles is 180 degrees. The space occupied by any two-dimensional figure in a plane is called the area. The space occupied by the triangle in a two-dimensional plane is called the area of the triangle.

Given that the height of a triangle is 3 feet greater than the base. The area of the triangle is 54 square feet.

The dimensions of the triangle will be calculated as,

A = (1/2)  x b x h

A = (1/2) x b x ( b + 3 )

54 = ( 1 / 2 ) x ( b² + 3b )

108 =  ( b² + 3b )

( b² + 3b - 108) = 0

( b² + 12b -3b -108 ) = 0

(b - 3 ) ( b+ 12 ) = 0

b = 3 and b = -12 ignore negative value.

The height will be calculated as,

h = b + 3

h = 3 + 3

h = 6 feet

Therefore, the length of the base is 3 feet and the height of the triangle is 6 feet.

Q4. An 8-sided fair die is rolled twice and the product of the two numbers obtained when the die is rolled two times is calculated.
(a) Draw the possibility diagram of the product of the two numbers appearing on the die in each throw (
b) Use the possibility diagram to calculate the probability that the product of the two numbers is
I) A prime number
ii) Not a perfect square
iii) A multiple of 5
iv) Less than or equal to 21
v) Divisible by 4 or 6

Answers

Answer: i) 12.5%       ii) 87.5%        iii) 23.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two die, each with 8 sides so the total number of outcomes is 8²

i) Product is a prime number --> 2, 3, 5, 7

Since it is a prime we only have the option of one die being a 1 and the other being the prime number.

So possible successful outcomes is: (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 5), (1, 7), (7, 1), (5, 1), (3, 1), and (2, 1) = 8 options.

[tex]\dfrac{successful\ outcomes}{total\ possible\ outcomes}=\dfrac{8}{8^2}=\dfrac{1}{8}=\large\boxed{12.5\%}[/tex]

ii) Not a perfect square.  Let's find the probability that it IS a perfect square and subtract that value from the total (64).

Product IS a perfect square --> 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64

Possible successful outcomes of a perfect square: (1, 1) (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4), (5, 5), (6, 6), (7, 7), (8, 8) = 8 options.

Product is NOT a perfect square = 64 - 8 = 56 options

[tex]\dfrac{successful\ outcomes}{total\ possible\ outcomes}=\dfrac{56}{8^2}=\dfrac{7}{8}=\large\boxed{87.5\%}[/tex]

iii) Product is a multiple of 5 --> 5, 10, 15, 20, ,25, 30, 35, 40,

Possible successful outcomes of a multiple of 5: (1, 5), (2, 5), (3, 5), (4, 5), (5, 5), (6, 5), (7,5), (8, 5), (5, 8), (5, 7), (5, 6), (5, 4), (5, 3), (5, 2), (5, 1) = 15 options

[tex]\dfrac{successful\ outcomes}{total\ possible\ outcomes}=\dfrac{15}{8^2}=\dfrac{15}{64}=\large\boxed{23.4\%}[/tex]

You are limited to 3 questions on Brainly so hopefully you can follow what I did to answer the last two questions (less than or equal to 21) and (divisible by 4 or 6). If not, please post this question again and state "Need iv and v only".

On your own paper graph each system of equations and then describe it:
y=x+4
Y= -x-4
Select one:
a. inconsistent
b. consistent and dependent
C. consistent and independent
d. can not be determined​

Answers

Answer:

The system of equations is consistent and independent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given system of equations :

[tex]y=x+4\\y= -x-4[/tex]

Consistent : For a two variable system of equations to be consistent the lines formed by the equations have to meet at some point or they have to be parallel.

Inconsistent :If the system of equations is not consistent then it is inconsistent.

Dependent:A dependent system of equations has infinite solutions

Independent :An independent system has a single solution.

Plot the lines on graph

y=x+4 --- Blue line

y=-x+4 ---- Green line

Refer the attached graph

The lines formed by the equations intersect at one point

So the lines are consistent

Now the given system of equations has single solution . So, it is independent

So, Option C is true

Hence The system of equations is consistent and independent

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y is directly proportional to the square of x.

[tex]y \propto x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = kx^{2}[/tex]

Find the value of k constant when y=32 and x=4.

[tex]32=k(4)^2[/tex]

Square the number 4.

[tex]32=16k[/tex]

Divide both sides with 16.

[tex]32/16=k[/tex]

[tex]k=2[/tex]

The value of k constant is 2.

Find the value of x when y=18

[tex]y=2x^2[/tex]

[tex]18=2x^2[/tex]

[tex]18/2=x^2[/tex]

A t-shirt increased in price by 14. After the increase it was priced at £30. What was the original price of the t-shirt?

Answers

So the increased price is 30 and it was increased by 14
So the cost before was 30 - 14 = 16

Answer:

Either £16 or £26.32 depending on what you meant in the question

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to answer the question in 2 ways, since I'm not sure if you mean £14 or 14%

If its £14, then the original price is 30-14 = £16

If its 14% then that means after the increase, the shirt will be 100%+14% of the original price or 114% of the original price.

This means that

£30 = 114%

To make it easier, reduce the 114% to 1 %

1% = 30/114

1% = £0.26316

100% = £26.32 (rounded to 2 decimal places)

Therefore the original price was £26.32

A video game that usually costs $30.65 is marked down 60%. Kelvin determined that the new price of the game would be $18.39. Look at Kelvin's work and find his error.

Answers

Answer: The answer is provided below

Step-by-step explanation:

A price markdown is a reduction that is deliberate when selling a product. From the question, we are informed that a video game that usually costs $30.65 is marked down 60%.

The find the new price of the video game, we have to subtract the amount reduced from the original price. The amount reduced is:

= 60% of $30.65

= 60/100 × $30.65

= 0.6 × $30.65

= $18.39

The new selling price = $30.65 - $18.39

= $12.26

The error that Kelvin made when he determined that the new price of the game would be $18.39 was that he didn't subtract the value from the original price of the video game.

in the year 2012 a farmer harvested 144 bags of maize.the following year the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4.What was the total number of bags harvested for the two years​

Answers

Answer:

252 bags of maize

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that a farmer harvested maize

In the year 2012 = 144 bags of maize

In the year 2013(following year) the harvest decreased in the ratio 3:4

This means

3:4 = 2013: 2012.

Where number of bags harvested in 2013 = unknown = x

3/4 = x/ 144

Cross multiply 4x = 3 × 144

x = 3 × 144/ 4

× = 108

This means 108 bags of maize was harvested in 2013

The total number of bags harvested is = 108 + 144

= 252 bags of maize.
