Answer:

Finding the average is a very straightforward concept. If you have a set of numbers, the average is found by adding all numbers in the set and dividing their sum by the total number of numbers added in the set.

example;

16, 17, 5, 27, 30, 20, 4, 1, 19, 9

add all 10 of these numbers together

16 + 17+ 5+27+30+4+1+19+9 = 148

divide 128 by 10

148 / 10 = 14.8

14.8 is the average

Find the area of ABC with vertices A(3,-6), B(5,-6), and C(7,–9).

stellarik [79]

Area of a triangle ABC with the given vertices is 3 square units.

Given that, the vertices of a triangle ABC, A(3,-6), B(5,-6), and C(7,–9).

<h3>What is the area of triangle formula in coordinate geometry?</h3>

In Geometry, a triangle is a three-sided polygon that has three edges and three vertices. The area of the triangle is the space covered by the triangle in a two-dimensional plane.

Area of a triangle = $\frac{1}{2} ( |x_1(y_2 - y_3) + x_2(y_3 - y_1) + x_3(y_1 - y_2)|)$

Here, (x1, y1) = A(3,-6), (x2, y2) = B(5,-6), and (x3, y3) = C(7,–9)

Now, the area of a triangle = 1/2 (|3(-6+9)+5(-9+6)+7(-6+6)|)

= 1/2 (|3(3)+5(-3)+7(0)|)

= 1/2 (|(9-15)|)

= 1/2 × 6

= 3 square units

Therefore, area of a triangle ABC with the given vertices is 3 square units.

Can someone help me with part b on this question please?

Galina-37 [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

12.0 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem applies:

(12 cm)² +b² = (17 cm)²

b² = (289 -144) cm² = 145 cm²

b = √145 cm ≈ 12.04 cm

b ≈ 12.0 cm . . . . rounded to 1 decimal place

The net of a rectangular prism is shown below.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a net to find the surface area of a rectangular prism

Finding the areas of each of the rectangles and squares of the net of a rectangular prism and adding up those areas gives the surface area or total surface area of the prism.

For example, if the length of one side of the cube 4 units then the area of one its face is 4 × 4 = 16 square units. From the net, we can see that there are six equal faces and so we get the total surface area is 6 × 16 = 96 square units.

Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism using Nets

A rectangular prism or cuboid is formed by folding a net as shown −

Cuboid

We can see from the net that there are two rectangles with dimensions 3 cm by 6 cm, two rectangles with dimensions 2 cm by 6 cm and two rectangles with dimensions 2 cm by 3 cm. The total surface area is then

2 × 3 × 6 + 2 × 2 × 6 + 2 × 2 × 3 = 72 cm2

Example 1:

Find the surface area of the given rectangular prism in square cm.

Rectangular Prism in Square cm

Solution

Step 1:

Using net, the surface area of a rectangular prism

= 2lw+wh+lh; l = 6 ; w = 5; h = 3

Step 2:

Surface area of given prism = 26×5+6×3+3×5

= 230+18+15

= 126 square cm

Example 2:

Find the surface area of the given rectangular prism in square cm.

Rectangular Prism Square cm

Solution

Step 1:

Using net, the surface area of a rectangular prism

= 2lw+wh+lh; l = 5; w = 6; h = 4

Step 2:

Surface area of given prism = 25×6+5×4+6×4

= 230+20+24

= 148 square cm

Solve the following system of equations:<br> 4x+5y=23<br> -3x-7y=-14

Korvikt [17]

Basically you're solving for both variables here.
I prefer elimination method so that is what I used.
I started off by multiplying each equation in order to get one of the variables at the same value so it would be possible to cancel it out.
Multiplying the first equation by 3 gave me,
12x + 15y = 69
Then I multiplied the second equation by 4,
-12x + 28y = -56
As you can see, it's not possible to cancel out the x variable.
12x + 15y = 69
+(-12x + 28y = -56)
_____________
13y = 13
Then just solve for y which gives you -1.
After you have one variable solved simply insert it into one of the original equations to find the other variable.
4x + 5(-1) = 23
4x - 5 = 23
4x = 28
x = 7.
And there you have it! Hope this helped!
