The "successful" region has half the size of the whole triangle, so by similar triangles, the probability that the area of triangle XYD is at most 12 is 1/4.

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

If you draw the triangle out on a grid papar and draw a line across the 2 marker point from XY up of the YZ side, you will see that the line from that marker point across to the hypotenuse is actually 8. Then you find the area of the little triangle with legs 8 and 4 (since 6-2 is 4), and the area is 16. After that, find the total area of the big triangle, which is 12x6/2=36. Since we want to know the area of the quadrilateral at the bottom of the big triangle seperated by the 2 marker point, we subtract 16 from 36, which equals to 20. 20/36=5/9. And that is my final answer. I tested it and it is correct. I hope this helps.

What are the coordinates of the roots of the equation x^2+ 4x + 3 = 0 ?​
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Factor out the x components of the equation

(x+3)(x+1)=0

2) Take each individual term and find the value for which the equation equals zero:

x+3=0 -> x=-3

x+1=0 -> x=-1

x = -3, -1

Find the area of the figure <br><br> Please help :)
ASHA 777 [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  372 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

A vertical line down the center of the figure will divide it into two congruent trapezoids, each with bases 13 and 18, and height 12.

The area of one of them is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

So, the area of the two of them together is ...

  A = (2)(1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (b1 +b2)h

  A = (13 m + 18 m)(12 m) = 372 m²

Which of the following is the range of function based on the input-output table below.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

B)  {1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600}


Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the set of x values (input)

and

Range is the set of y values (output)

In this case, y = pay per month

so Range = {1000, 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600}
