Answer:
w = 22 in, h = 8 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Reading the problem, I immediately see two equations. This hints me towards a system of equations problem.
Statement 1 is The width of a triangle is six more than twice the height.
The width (w) of a triangle is (=) six (6) more (+) than twice (2) the height (h).
Equation 1: w = 6 + 2h
Statement 2 is The area of the triangle is 88 in2.
The formula for the area of a triangle is [tex]\frac{wh}{2}[/tex]. So, we get our second equation.
Equation 2: wh/2 = 88
We see that we have the same number of equations as unknowns, two. This is important as it lets us know that we can find two unknowns in the two equations. If there are more unknowns than equations, then we cannot find the values of all the variables. Look for another equation in the problem. However, if the # equations greater than or equal to number of unknowns, then we are ready to start solving! So, we can now move to solving.
Equation 1 isolates one of the unknowns (w). So, we can replace w in the second equation with the right side of eq 1. Then, we simplify for h.
[tex]\frac{wh}{2} = 88[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(6 + 2h)h}{2} = 88[/tex]
[tex]\frac{6h + 2h^2}{2} = 88[/tex]
[tex]6h + 2h^2 = 176[/tex]
[tex]2h^2 + 6h - 176 = 0[/tex]
[tex]h = -11, 8[/tex] (assuming you know how to solve quadratics)
Since we know that heights of triangles cannot be negative, we find that [tex]h = 8[/tex] in.
For the final step, we plug [tex]h[/tex] into our first equation to find [tex]w[/tex].
[tex]w = 6 + 2h[/tex]
[tex]w = 6 + 2(8)[/tex]
[tex]w = 6 + 16[/tex]
[tex]w = 22[/tex]
So, the answer is w = 22 in, h = 8 in.
To check if we were right, we can plug the values into both equations to see if they are equal. I will skip equation 1 since we used that equation "as-is" to find w.
[tex]\frac{wh}{2} = 88[/tex]
[tex]\frac{22 * 8}{2} = 88[/tex]
[tex]11 * 8 = 88[/tex]
[tex]88 = 88[/tex]
The solution checks out!

Solve the inequality -3/4(12x+16)<9-5x.
Answer:
x > -21/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x > -24/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/4 (12x + 16) < 9 - 5x
-3/4 * 12x - 3/4 * 16 < 9-5x
-9x - 3/4 * 16 < 9 - 5x
-9x - 12 < 9 - 5x
-4x - 12 < 9
-4x < 21
A farmer wants to increase the area of His rectangular pen but keep the pen a rectangular shape. He decides to a 5.7 yards of fencing
to the width of the pen but the length will remain 9.5 yards. The new area will be 77.9 square yards.
Which can be used to determine the original width of the pen?
5.7 (W+9.5) = 77.9
S95219
9.5 (W + 5.7) = 77.9
Using the equation for the area of a rectangle, the original width of the pen is determined by:
9.5 (W + 5.7) = 77.9
The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by:
[tex]A = lw[/tex]
In this problem:
Increases the width by 5.7 yards, hence [tex]w = w + 5.7[/tex], in which w is the original width.The length remains at 9.5 yards, hence [tex]l = 9.5[/tex].The area is of 77.9 square yards, hence [tex]A = 77.9[/tex]Then:
[tex]A = lw[/tex]
[tex]9.5(w + 5.7) = 77.9[/tex]

9514 1404 393
Answer:
D. choosing first second-, and third-place winners in a cooking contest
Step-by-step explanation:
Permutations are involved when order matters. The order of people surveyed, sundae flavors, and flowers are irrelevant. The order of first-second-third is entirely relevant.
Cooking contest winners involve permutations.

x + x - 3 + 2x - 9 = 36
4x - 12 = 36
4x = 36 + 12 = 48
x = 48/4 = 12
x = 12
so,
x = 12
x - 3 = 12 - 3 = 9
2x - 9 = 2(12) - 9 = 15
we know,
area = 1/2 × base × height
so,
→ 1/2 × 12 × 9
→ 1 × 6 × 9
→ 54 inches.

Simplify the expression using trigonometric identities: sec (–θ) – cos θ.
Answer:
sin θ . tan θ
Step-by-step explanation:
Note : -
sec ( - θ ) = sec θ
Formula / Identity : -
sec θ = 1 / cos θ
sec ( - θ ) - cos θ
= [ 1 / cos θ ] - cos θ
{ LCM = cos θ }
= [ 1 / cos θ ] - [ cos²θ / cos θ ]
= [ 1 - cos²θ ] / cos θ
{ 1 - cos²θ = sin²θ }
= sin²θ / cos θ
{ sin²θ = sin θ . sin θ }
= sin θ . sin θ / cos θ
{ sin θ / cos θ = tan θ }
= sin θ . tan θ
Hence, simplified.

Answer: You need to prove that ABCD is a rhombus because it's diagonals are always perpendicular, no matter what.
A rhombus is a quadrilateral and:
- its opposite angles have equal measure.
- The two diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular; that is, a rhombus is an orthodiagonal quadrilateral.
- Its diagonals bisect opposite angles.
