the base length of a particular triangle is 4 inches mote than its height. it the area of the triangle is 10.5 square inches, find the base length and height brainly

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Height = 3 inches and Base length = 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Information provided to answer the question correctly:

Base of the triangle = x+ 4

Height of the triangle = x

Area of the triangle = 10.5 inches²

2. Find the base length and height

Let's recall the formula of the area of a triangle:

Area = (Base * Height)/2

Replacing with the values we know:

10.5 = x (x + 4)/2

21 = x²+ 4x

+ 4x - 21 = 0

(x + 7) (x - 3) = 0

(x₁ + 7) = 0 ⇒ x₁ = -7

(x₂ - 3) = 0 ⇒ x₂ = 3

We take  x₂ as the answer because x₁ = -7 is not a valid height.

Height = 3 inches and Base length = 7 inches

5x + 10 = −4x − 17 what is x

Answers

5x + 10 = -4x - 17 
 +4x          +4x

5x + 4x = 9x

9x + 10 = -17
      -10     -10

-27

9x = -27        9x/9 = -27/9

x = -3


this is how you solve for x;

5x + 10 = -4x -17

5x + 4x + 10 = -4x +4x -17 (add 4x on both sides)

9x + 10 = -17

9x +10-10 = -17 -10 (subtract 10 on both sides)

9x = - 27 (next do the inverse operation of x)

x = -27 ÷ 9

Which of the following exponential functions goes through the points (1, 6) and (2, 12)?f(x) = 3(2)x
f(x) = 2(3)x
f(x) = 3(2)−x
f(x) = 2(3)−x

Answers

Answer

f(x)=3(2)^x

Explanation

To solve this, we re using the standard exponential equation: f(x)=ab^x

Also, remember that f(x)=y

We know that our exponential function goes through the points (1, 6) and (2, 12), so we are going to replace the points in our stander exponential equation and solve for a and b:

For (1, 6)

x=1 and y/f(x)=6, so:

f(x)=ab^x

6=ab^1

6=ab

a=(6)/(b) equation (1)

For (2, 12)

x=2 and y/f(x)=12, so:

f(x)=ab^x

12=ab^2 equation (2)

Replace equation (1) in equation (2) and solve for b

12=ab^2

12=((6)/(b)) b^2

12=6b

b=(12)/(6)

b=2 equation (3)

Replace equation (3) in equation (1) to find a

a=(6)/(b)

a=(6)/(2)

a=3

Now we can complete our exponential function:

f(x)=ab^x

f(x)=3(2)^x

We can conclude that the exponential function that goes through the points (1, 6) and (2, 12) is f(x)=3(2)^x
