585/2 for exact form
292.5 for decimal form
292 1/2 for mixed number form
Rewrite the boundary lines <em>y</em> = -1 - <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 1 as functions of <em>y </em>:
<em>y</em> = -1 - <em>x</em> ==> <em>x</em> = -1 - <em>y</em>
<em>y</em> = <em>x</em> - 1 ==> <em>x</em> = 1 + <em>y</em>
So if we let <em>x</em> range between these two lines, we need to let <em>y</em> vary between the point where these lines intersect, and the line <em>y</em> = 1.
This means the area is given by the integral,
The integral with respect to <em>x</em> is trivial:
For the remaining integral, integrate term-by-term to get
Alternatively, the triangle can be said to have a base of length 4 (the distance from (-2, 1) to (2, 1)) and a height of length 2 (the distance from the line <em>y</em> = 1 and (0, -1)), so its area is 1/2*4*2 = 4.
It gonna go either to quadrant 2 or 3
Whenever dealing with percents you have to put it in decimals. so pretty much multiply 0.60 to 120 and then subtract that number you got to 120
It looks alright to me but i would check it again see if you missed anything <span />
