The length of a side and corresponding height of a triangle are (x+3) and (2x-5) given that area of triangle is 20cm^2. Find the value of x

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as

A = bh ( b is the base and h is height )

Here A = 20, b = (x + 3) and h = (2x - 5) , then

(x + 3)(2x - 5) = 20 ← multiply both sides by 2

(x + 3)(2x - 5) = 40 ← expand left side using FOIL

2x² + x - 15 = 40 ( subtract 40 from both sides )

2x² + x - 55 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 5)(2x + 11) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

2x + 11 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 11 ⇒ x = - 5.5

But x > 0 , so x = 5

the correct answer is you spend $55.78 more in a brand store that buy ing in a normal store.

step-by-step explanation:

brand = spend   $ 135.85 total

store = spend $80.07 total

54 kilometers per hour

step-by-step explanation:

according to rules:

1 km = 1000 meter

which means that 1 meter = 1/1000 km

1 hour = 3600 second [ as 1 hour = 60 min = 60 *60 seconds ]

which means that 1 second = 1/3600 hour

therefore, 1 kilometer/hour =

thus to convert 15 meter per second to kilometer per hour, we multiply 15 to 3.6 kilometer/hour.

15 meter/second=   which is the required answer.
