Recall Heron's Formula to find the area of a triangle with sides a, b and c.
We define a new quantity s given by:
[tex]s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]Then, the area of the triangle is given by the formula:
[tex]A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]For a=20, b=10 and c=15 we have:
[tex]s=\frac{20+10+15}{2}=22.5[/tex]Then, the area of the triangle is:
[tex]\begin{gathered} A=\sqrt{22.5(22.5-20)(22.5-10)(22.5-15)} \\ =\sqrt{22.5(2.5)(12.5)(7.5)} \\ =\frac{75\sqrt{15}}{4} \\ =72.61843774... \\ \approx72.6 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the exact answer is:
[tex]A=\frac{75\sqrt{15}}{4}[/tex]And the approximate area of the triangle ABC when c=15m, a=20m and b=10m is 72.6 m^2.

ANSWER IMMEDIATELY PLEASE Identify the number of roots each polynomial has.Number one. 3x^4-2x^2+17x-4Number two. 12x^5+x^7-8+4x^2Number 3. 15+6x
Step 1
The degree of the leading term determines how many roots a polynomial has. Examine the highest-degree term of the polynomial – that is, the term with the highest exponent. That exponent is how many roots the polynomial will have. So if the highest exponent in your polynomial is 2, it'll have two roots; if the highest exponent is 3, it'll have three roots; and so on. A polynomial with a leading degree of 5 has 5 roots.

The idea behind the problem is solving an equation involving square roots. The equation I'm talking about is
[tex]358=20\cdot\sqrt[]{273+t}[/tex](I merely replaced v by 358; what we are supposed to do is to find t). Let's solve it:
1. 20 is multiplying at the right-hand side, let's send it to divide at the left:
[tex]\frac{358}{20}=\sqrt[]{273+t}[/tex]2. (this is the most important step) Take the power of 2 on both sides:
[tex](\frac{358}{20})^2=273+t[/tex]...........................................................................................................................................................
Comment: Remember that
[tex](\sqrt[]{273+t})^2=273+t[/tex]because square root and powering by two are inverse of each other.
...........................................................................................................................................................
3. Put the left-hand side in a calculator to get:
[tex]\frac{128164}{400}=273+t[/tex]4. Let's subtract 273 to the left-hand side:
[tex]320.41-273=t[/tex][tex]47.41\degree C=t[/tex]
Divide and simplify. Assume all variables result in non-zero denominators.
The simplified form of the given expression is [tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}=\frac{4q(4q-5)}{(q-3)(q-4)}[/tex]
In the given question we have to divide and simplify the given expression.
The given exression is [tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}[/tex].
As we know that when we change division sign into multiplication the fraction after the division change their position.
So the expression should be
[tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}=\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\times\frac{16q^2+12q}{q^2-9}[/tex]...............(1)
Before simplifying the expression we firstly find the factor of each term seprately.
Firstly find the factor of [tex]4q^2+7q-15[/tex].
The multiplication of first and third variable is 60 so the possible factors are 12 and 5. So
[tex]4q^2+7q-15=4q^2+(12-5)q-15[/tex]
[tex]4q^2+7q-15=4q^2+12q-5q-15[/tex]
[tex]4q^2+7q-15[/tex] = 4q(q+3)-5(q+3)
[tex]4q^2+7q-15[/tex] = (4q-5)(q+3)
Now finding the value of [tex]4q^2-13q-12[/tex].
The multiplication of first and third term is 48, so the possible factors are 16 and 3.
[tex]4q^2-13q-12=4q^2-(16-3)q-12[/tex]
[tex]4q^2-13q-12=4q^2-16q+3q-12[/tex]
[tex]4q^2-13q-12[/tex] = 4q(q-4)+3(q-4)
[tex]4q^2-13q-12[/tex] = (4q+3)(q-4)
Now finding the factor of [tex]q^2-9[/tex].
Using the formula [tex]a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)[/tex]
[tex]q^2-9=(q)^2-(3)^2[/tex]
[tex]q^2-9[/tex] = (q-3)(q+3)
Now finding the factor of [tex]16q^2+12q[/tex].
[tex]16q^2+12q[/tex] = 4q(4q+3)
Putting the value of factors in equation 1
[tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}=\frac{(4q-5)(q+3)}{ (4q+3)(q-4)}\times\frac{4q(4q+3)}{(q-3)(q+3)}[/tex]
Simplifying
[tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}=\frac{(4q-5)}{ (q-4)}\times\frac{4q}{(q-3)}[/tex]
Hence, the simplified form of the given expression is
[tex]\frac{4q^2+7q-15}{4q^2-13q-12}\div\frac{q^2-9}{16q^2+12q}=\frac{4q(4q-5)}{(q-3)(q-4)}[/tex]

From the top of a high diving board to the bottom of a pool is 1,154 centimeters. If the pool is 244 centimeters deep, estimate the distance from the high diving board to the surface of the pool by rounding each number to the nearest hundred.
So, from the top of the diving board to the bottom of a pool is 1,154. If we subtract this from the depth of the pool, we'll find the distance from the diving board to the surface of the pool.
So, 1,154 - 244 = 910cm. About 9 meters, 900cm.
Also, if we round each number to the nearest hundred, we'll have
1,100 - 200 = 900 cm.
2 groups of students group a and group B have the age distributions shown below which statement about the distributions is true
The ages of the students of groups A and B are displayed in the histograms.
For group A
We can determine the number of students per age by looking at the bars of the histogram
2 are 15 years old
5 are 16 years old
6 are 17 years old
5 are 18 years old
2 are 19 years old
The total students for group A is
[tex]\begin{gathered} n_A=2+5+6+5+2 \\ n_A=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]To calculate the average age on group a you have to use the following formula
[tex]X^{\text{bar}}=\frac{\Sigma x_if_i}{n}[/tex]Σxifi indicates the sum of each value of age multiplied by its observed frequency
n is the total number of students of the group
For group A the average value is
[tex]\begin{gathered} X^{\text{bar}}_A=\frac{(15\cdot2)+(16\cdot5)+(17\cdot6)+(18\cdot5)+(19\cdot2)}{20} \\ X^{\text{bar}}_A=\frac{340}{20} \\ X^{\text{bar}}_A=17 \end{gathered}[/tex]The average year of group A is 17 years old.
To determine the Median of the group, you have to calculate its position first.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{PosMe}=\frac{n}{2} \\ \text{PosMe}=\frac{20}{2} \\ \text{PosMe}=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]The Median is in the tenth position. To determine the age it corresponds you have to look at the accumulated observed frequencies:
F(15)=2
F(16)=2+5=7
F(17)=7+6=13→ The 10nth observation corresponds to a 17 year old student
F(18)=13+5=18
F(19)=18+2=20
The median of group A is 17 years old.
For group B
As before we can determine the number of students per age by looking at the bars of the histogram
2 are 15 years old
3 are 16 years old
4 are 17 years old
5 are 18 years old
6 are 19 years old
The total number of students for group B is
[tex]\begin{gathered} n_B=2+3+4+5+6 \\ n_B=20 \end{gathered}[/tex]The average age of group B can be calculated as
[tex]\begin{gathered} X^{\text{bar}}_B=\frac{\Sigma x_if_i}{n} \\ X^{\text{bar}}_B=\frac{(2\cdot15)+(3\cdot16)+(4\cdot17)+(5\cdot18)+(6\cdot19)}{20} \\ X^{\text{bar}}_B=\frac{350}{20} \\ X^{\text{bar}}_B=17.5 \end{gathered}[/tex]The average age for group B is 17.5 years old
Same as before, to determine the median you have to calculate its position in the sample and then locate it:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{PosMe}=\frac{n}{2} \\ \text{PosMe}=\frac{20}{2} \\ \text{PosMe}=10 \end{gathered}[/tex]The median is in the 10nth position, to determine where the 10nth student is located you have to take a look at the accumulated frequencies:
F(15)=2
F(16)=2+3=5
F(17)=5+4=9
F(18)=9+5=14 →The 10nth observation corresponds to a 18 year old student
F(19)=14+6=20
The median of group B is 18 years old
So
[tex]\begin{gathered} X^{\text{bar}}_A=17 \\ X^{\text{bar}}_B=17.5_{} \\ Me_A=17 \\ Me_B=18_{} \end{gathered}[/tex]The mean and median of group B are greater than the mean and median from group B. The correct choice is the first one.

The derivative of the function is given as:
[tex]g^{\prime}(x)=\frac{x^2-16}{x-2}[/tex]It is also given that g(3)=4.
Note that the Slope of a Tangent Line to a function at a point is the value of the derivative at that point.
Substitute x=3 into the derivative:
[tex]g^{\prime}(3)=\frac{3^2-16}{3-2}=\frac{9-16}{1}=\frac{-7}{1}=-7[/tex]It follows that the slope of the tangent line at x=3 is -7.
Since it is given that g(3)=4, it implies that (3,4) is a point on the line.
Recall that the equation of a line with slope m, which passes through a point (x₁,y₁) is given by the point-slope formula as:
[tex]y-y_!=m(x-x_1)[/tex]Substitute the point (x₁,y₁)=(3,4) and the slope m=-7 into the point-slope formula:
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-4=-7(x-3) \\ \Rightarrow y-4=-7x+21 \\ \Rightarrow y=-7x+21+4 \\ \Rightarrow y=-7x+25 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the equation of the tangent line to the graph of g at x=3 is y=-7x+25.
The required equation is y=-7x+25.
If 15 people greet each other at a meeting by shaking hands with one another, how many handshakes take place?
There are 105 handshakes that take place at the meeting.
To find the number of handshakes, we can use a formula that counts the number of combinations of two items from a set of n items.
The formula is:
[tex]n * (n - 1) / 2[/tex]
In this case, n is the number of people, which is 15.
So, we plug in 15 into the formula and get:
[tex]15 * (15 - 1) / 2[/tex]
Simplifying, we get:
[tex]15 * 14 / 2[/tex]
Multiplying, we get:
[tex]210 / 2[/tex]
Dividing, we get:

We can write the solution as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 4x-2y=20 \\ 2y=20-4x \\ y=10-2x \\ y=-2x+10 \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer: the system has infinte solutions, expressed in the line y=-2x+10.
At Paesano's Pizza, the price of a large pizza is determined by P = 9+ 1.5x, where x represents the number of toppings added to a cheese pizza. Donna spent $13.50 on a large pizza. How many toppings did she get?
Let's evaluate the function for:
[tex]P(x)=13.50[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} 9+1.5x=13.5 \\ \text{Solving for x:} \\ \text{Subtract 9 from both sides:} \\ 9+1.5x-9=13.5-9 \\ 1.5x=4.5 \\ \text{Divide both sides by 1.5:} \\ \frac{1.5x}{1.5}=\frac{4.5}{1.5} \\ x=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]She get 3 toppings
