Answer:
15/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
the area of a triangle is b*h/2
we can set BC as the base because AC is harder to calculate.
Then we draw an imaginary height.
There's no way to really explain, but the height would be 5 here, since 3 - -2 = 5
The base is 3
3*5/2 = 15/2
Thanks,

Answer:
B and C work. A and D do not.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.
A]
5n + 6
Let n = 1
5(1) + 6
5 + 6= 11
However there is trouble beginning with n = 2
5*2 + 6
10 + 6
16 All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.
================
Try D
6(n - 1)+ 5
n=0
6*(-1) + 5
-6 + 5
- 1
And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse. D is not one of the answers.
=============
B
Let n = 1
6(1) + 5
6 + 5
11 The first term works.
n = 2
6*(2) + 5
12 + 5
17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.
n = 3
6*(3) + 5
18 + 5
23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4
========
C
n = 0
6(0 + 1) + 5
6*1 + 5
6 + 5
11
n = 1
6(1 + 1) + 5
6*2 + 5
12 + 5
17 which works.
So C is an answer.
The answer is D. In the function
, A value of 5 would make the denominator 0. This is undefined, so 5 is excluded.
Pythagorean Theorem
3*3+8*8=x*x
9+64=x*x
73=x*x
x=√73≈8.5
