The height of a triangle is 4 inches greater than twice its base. The area of the triangle is no more than 168 in.² which inequality can be used to find the possible lengths, x, of the base of the triangle?
A. x(x+2)=>168
B. x(x+2)=<168
C. 1/2x(x+4)=<168
D. 1/2x(x+4)=>168

Respuesta :

gmany
b = x - the base
h = 2x + 4 - the height

Formula of the area of the triangle:

[tex]A_\Delta=\dfrac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

substitute:

[tex]A_\Delta=\dfrac{1}{2}x(2x+4)=x\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot2x+\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot4\right)=x(x+2)[/tex]

Answer: [tex]B.\ x(x+2)\leq168[/tex]

Answer:

Yea b
