document.write( "Question 721800: My question is a word problem so ill just type it:
\n" ); document.write( "Word Problem: \"The height of a triangle is (2x+3)inches, and the corresponding base is 5 inches. If the area of the triangle is less than 55 square inches, create and solve the inequality to find the value of x. what is the maximum height of the triangle?\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "A= 1/2b*h so would it be 5(2x+3)over 2? would I destribute the 5 to the 2x+3? & wouldnt that at the same time find the max height? if i resolved the equation?
\n" ); document.write( "

\"The height of a triangle is (2x+3)inches, and the corresponding base is 5 inches. If the area of the triangle is less than 55 square inches, create and solve the inequality to find the value of x. what is the maximum height of the triangle?\"
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Area = (1/2)(base)(height)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "55 > (1/2)*5*(2x+3)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "22 > 2x+3
\n" ); document.write( "2x < 19
\n" ); document.write( "x < 9.5 inches
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Max height < 2x+3 = 22
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Max height is not an exact number.
