Respuesta :
height = 5+2xbase
74 = 5+2xbase
subtract 5 from both sides
69 = 2xbase
divide both sides by 2
34.5mm = base length
74 = 5+2xbase
subtract 5 from both sides
69 = 2xbase
divide both sides by 2
34.5mm = base length
The base length of the triangle is 34.5 mm having a height of 74 mm.
What is a linear equation?
It is defined as the relation between two variables if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.
If in the linear equation one variable is present then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.
We have the height of a triangle is 5 more than double the base length.
The height of the triangle h = 74 mm
Let's suppose the base length is b mm
Then,
h = 5 + 2b
74 = 5 + 2b (h = 74 mm)
The above equation is a linear equation with one variable.
74 - 5 = 2b (subtract by 5 on both sides)
69 = 2b
69/2 = b (divide by 2 on both sides)
b = 34.5 mm
Thus, the base length of the triangle is 34.5 mm having height of 74 mm.
