then times it by 3
Use algebra to figure out the answer
i am telling you this because i don't know the answer

No
Yes
EXPLANATION
The given line passes through the points,.

We need to determine the slope of this line using these two points.
The formula for finding the slope is


We can now use the formula

in the slope intercept form.
If we use the point

the equation will be,

If we use the point,

we obtain,
If the sides are in the ratio of 11:16:24, it means that they are all multiples of a same number x, according to these factors.
So, the shorter side is 11x feet long, the middle one is 16x feet long, and the longest side is 24x feet long.
This means that the perimeter is
feet long. But we know that this is 510 feet, so we have
.
So, the three sides are 110, 160 and 240 feet long.
To find the area of a triangle knowing its three sides, you can use Heron's formula, which states that, if
is half the perimeter of the triangle whose sides are
, the area
is given by

In our case,
so the formula becomes

Answer:
Part A)
- 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
- 13.5 0 > 9
Part B)
Explanation:
1) The earnings are calculated multiplying the number of hours by the hourly rate.
2) The hourly rate of both Peter and Cindy is the same: $ 4.50 / hour
3) Let the variable used for computing the number of hours be h.
4) The number of hours Peter works every day is 3 hours, so, using the letter P to name Peter's earnings, the expression to calculate his earnings is:
5) Similarly, the expression to calculate Cindy's earnings would be:
<u>Answering part A)</u>
<u>Y</u>ou have to write an inequality to compare Peter's and Cindy's earnings:
- 4.50 × 3 > 4.50 × 2
- 13.5 0 > 9
This is, the earnings of Peter are greater than the earnings of Cindy.
<u>Part B)</u>,
You have to write an inequality to calculate Cindy's per-hour income so that she earns at least $ 14 a day.
- Here, C ≥ 14, because the sign ≥ means greater than or equal to, meaning the the earnings are greater than or equal to 14.
- Thus, since she works 2 hours per day, the inequality becomes 2 × r ≥ $ 14, where r is the per-hour income.
- To solve it follow these steps:
Given: 2r ≥ 14
Divide both sides by 2: r ≥ 14 / 2
Simplify: r ≥ 7
That means that Cindy's per-hour income should be at least $7 and hour so that she earns $14 a day.
