Answer:
27.84 m² , 42.48 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A =
bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )
Shape A
has b = 9.6 and h = 5.8, then
A = 0.5 × 9.6 × 5.8 = 27.84 m²
Shape B
has b = 11.8 and h = 7.2 , then
A = 0.5 × 11.8 × 7.2 = 42.48 m²
Answer:
2 .The slope of Function A is less than the slope of Function B
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph of Function A shows it has a y-intercept of 4, the same as that of Function B. (Statements 3 and 4 are not correct.)
The slope of Function A is 2, which is less than the slope of 3 that Function B has. (Statement 2 is correct; statement 1 is not.)
_____
<em>More detailed working</em>
The slope of Function A can be figured easily between the points with x-values that differ by 1:
m = (y3 -y2)/(x3 -x2) = (24-22)/(10-9) = 2/1 = 2 . . . . . Fun A has slope of 2.
The slope of Function B is the coefficient of x in the equation: 3.
__
The y-intercept of Function A can be found starting with point-slope form:
y -22 = 2(x -9)
y = 2x -18 +22
y = 2x +4 . . . . . . . slope-intercept form
The intercept of +4 is the same as that of Function B.
This problem exercises the concept of "similar triangles."
With similar triangles, we can compare the sides using ratios.
The equation we can use to find side A is stated below.
Side 1A / Side 1B = Side 2A / Side 2B
The number refers to the triangle, and the letter refers to the side of each triangle. Side A in both triangles must be the base of the triangle, and side B in both triangles can be either of the other sides. The only restriction is that once we pick a side B on triangle 1, we must pick that same side on triangle 2.
A / 7 = 3 / 2
Then we can solve for the length of side A.
A = 7*3/2 = 21/2 = (E) None of These
