Algebra.Com's Answer #632115 by 428225(90)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! If you let x = the width of the triangle then the length = 2x+5 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "You know that the area is 33 therefore you need to multiply the width and length together. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "x(2x+5)=33 \n" ); document.write( "2x^2+5x-33=0\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Solve this quadratic to find the answer (Remember that width and length cannot be negative). \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
