To calculate for the area of the triangle given all its side, use the Heron's formula which is, 
 
                            A = sqrt ((s)(s - a)(s - b)(s - c))

where A is the area. a, b, and c are the measure of the sides and s the semi - perimeter or half of the perimeter.

With the given above, s = (17 + 18 + 21.4) / 2 = 28.2

Substituting the known dimensions to the Heron's formula,
          
          A = sqrt ((28.2)(28.2 - 17)(28.2 - 18)(28.2 - 21.4)) = 148 units^3

Thus, the area of the triangle is 148 units^3.

What is the value of the expression f(–3)?<br> -15 <br> 3<br> -3<br> 15
arlik [135]

Answer:

Option A, -15

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Look at the function that needs to be outputted when x = -3</u>

Since x = -3, that means it falls into the first category of x ≤ -3

<u>Step 2:  Carry out the instructions</u>

The function for the first category is -x^{2} + 2x

f(-3) =-(-3)^{2}+2(-3)

f(-3) = -(9) - 6

f(-3) = -15

Answer:  Option A, -15

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

since y and x vary directly the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use any ordered pair from the list given

using x = 4 when y = - 2, then

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-2}{4} = - 0.5 → B
