Answer:
Correct statements:
Step-by-step explanation:
A line that rises from left to right has a positive slope.
A line that falls from right to left has a negative slope.
A horizontal line has no slope. (slope of 0)
Let the area of the original rectangle be A₁.
A₁ = (12 ft)(8 feet) = 96 ft²
To determine the area of the reduced triangle, let's compute the new dimensions first.
Length = 12 ft * 3/4 - 9 ft
Width = 8 ft *3/4 = 6 ft
Thus, the area of the new rectangle denoted as A₂ is
A₂ = (9 ft)(6 ft) = 54 ft
The ratio of the areas are:
A₂/A₁ = 54/96 = 9/16
The ratio of the sides are given to be 3/4.
Finally the ratios of the area to side would be:
Ratio = 9/16 ÷ 3/4 = 3/4
Therefore, the ratio of the areas is 3/4 of the ratio of the corresponding sides.
Its okay bro, we all failed
