So the formula for the area of a triangle is
(b = base, h = height). In this case, by counting from (-3,-3) to (-3,2) the height is 5 and the base is 4 counting from (-3,2) to (1,2).
Using this info, we can form the equation
and solve from there.

Hi.
Formula for area: A = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is the width.
Given information:
• l = 2w - 1
• A = 21 in^2
We can plug in our values accordingly and solve for w.
A = 2l + 2w
21 = 2(2w - 1) + 2w
21 = 4w - 2 + 2w
23 = 6w - 2
23 = 6w
3.83 = w
Plug 3.83 for w into 2w - 1 to find length.
2(3.83) - 1
7.66 - 1
6.66
Finally, check your work by plugging your values into the original equation.
21 = 2(6.66) + 2(3.83)
21 = 13.32 + 7.66
21 = 20.98
Answer:
The length is approximately 6.66 inches.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The length of segment B''C'' is equal to the length of segment BC multiplied by the scale factor
step 1
Find the length of segment BC
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

we have the points
B(1,-3),C(-3,-3)
substitute the values



The segment B''C'' is equal to the segment BC multiplied by the scale factor
The scale factor is 3
so


substitute

Answer:
1 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between 1 and 2 is 5 units. Therefore, Point D is 3/5 of the way to 2.
