You say rectangle. I assume typo? Did you read what you wrote?
All terms in the area are - ?
-17.5 x^2 -138 x - 27 = 231?
+17.5 x +138 x + 258 = 0
x = -3.05 or x = -4.84
Can you PLEASE help me with this problem? I do not understand...
The area of a triangle can be found by using the formula A=1/2bh. The area of the triangle can be represented by the expression
-17.5x2^ - 138.5x - 27. The triangle's base length is greater than its height. If the area of the triangle is 231 square inches, find the value of x as it relates to this rectangle, the numerical length of the base, and the numerical length of the height.
x =
Base =
Height =

231 = -17.5x2^ - 138.5x - 27
462 = -37 x^2 - 277 x - 54
0 = -37 x^2 - 277 x - 516
use quadratic formula to find x
462 = -37 x^2 - 277 x - 54
0 = -37 x^2 - 277 x - 516
use quadratic formula to find x
