Answer:

A.  6

Step-by-step explanation:

Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long.

Point C is on the line x = −1.

FIND:

If the area of ΔABC is 6 square units, then find a possible y-coordinate of point C.

SOLUTION:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 b * h

segment AB is a horizontal line

the base of our triangle and point C is somewhere on the height.

If we can find the height of the triangle, we can add or subtract that height from y = 2 to get the possible y coordinate of point C.

We know that the x coordinate is -1 so,

6 = 1/2 (3) h

12 = 3h

h = 4

we can either add 4 or subtract 4 to the y coordinate of 2 to get the possible y coordinate of point C.

option 1

2 + 4 = 6 so the coordinate for C could be (-1, 6) or

option 2

2 - 4 = -2 so the coordinate for C could also be (-1, -2).

Since -2 is not in our choices but 6.

therefore,

the answer would be A. 6

If 1 cm represents 30 km on a map and colorado is shown by a 20cm by 15 cm rectangle on the map, what is the approximate actual
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

20*30km = 600km

15*30km = 450km

600km * 450km = 270000 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming 1cm --- 30km causes that 2cm --- 60km, 3cm --- 90km, 4cm --- 120km etc. Notice that number of km's is 30 times greater than the number of cm's on a map

using this logic, you calculate both real dimensions of Colorado by multiplying 20*30 = 600 km and 15*30 = 450km

Then we use a formula of an area of a rectangle A=a\cdot b assuming a=600km, \ b=450km and get A=600\cdot 450=270000km^2 which is an actual area of Colorado

Pls help me with this question.
maw [93]

Answer:

The slope for this equation is \frac{1}{7}.

Step-by-step explanation:

                       x         y

point 1:           -4        -3

point 2:           3        -2  

slope:             \frac{1}{7}

To solve for slope here is an equation, to help: \frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}

\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1} \\\\\frac{-2-(-3)}{3-(-4)} \\\\= \frac{1}{7} \\

What is the square root of 504 simplified ?
Reil [10]

Answer:

6\sqrt{14}

Step-by-step Explanation:

     To simplify \sqrt{504}, we will look for numbers that 504 can be divided by until there are no perfect square roots under the radical.

[] To do this, we can think of perfect square roots such as 4, 9, 16, etc

We can divide 504 by 36 for an answer of 14, so \sqrt{504} can be written as \sqrt{36*14} which can be written as 6\sqrt{14} because the square root of 36 is 6.

Have a nice day!

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Barbara was earning $8.70 per hour when she got a 6% increase in pay .what was the rate of pay after that increase ?
densk [106]
First we find the increase by multiplying the percentage with the base salary

8.70*(6/100)=0.522 that's the increase

then we add it to the base salary

8.70+0.522=9.222$
