To find the area of a triangle, use the formula that is A= 1/2(base x height)
The answer is B for every change in x by 2, y changes by 4
EXPLANATION:
In the chart, each time they add 2 in the x (-4 +2 is -2, -2 + 2 is 0 and so on) in the y pile they add 4
AD = 42-x
The bisector of an angle of a triangle divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the adjacent sides ⇒
AB/BC = AD/DC
36/27 = (42-x)/x
36x = 27(42-x)
36x = 1134 - 27x
36x + 27x = 1134
63x = 1134
x = 1134/63
x = 18
