we have 4 gals, Stephanie, Andrea, Emily and Becca.
btw the end point should be (-6, -7) and the start point is (8, 6).
so, if we know the distance between those two points, we can just cut it in 4 equal pieces and each gal will be driving a piece.
now, Emily's turn is after Andrea, BUT, we had first Stephenie driving ¼ of the way, then Andrea driving ¼ of the way too, but after ¼+¼, Emily comes on, but ¼+¼ is really 1/2, so when Emily starts, is really half-way through, or the midpoint of that distance.
Emily's turn ends ¼ of the way later, which will be pretty much half-way in between (1, -½) and (-6, -7), so is really the midpoint of those two.
<h3>Answer: A) 52 square inches</h3>
==========================================================
Explanation:
a = 8, b = 13, and c = 15 are the sides of the triangle
s = (a+b+c)/2 = (8+13+15)/2 = 18 is the semi-perimeter, aka half the perimeter.
Those values are then plugged into Heron's Formula below
The triangular plaque has an area of approximately 52 square inches.
