Answer:
42.875
Step-by-step explanation:
First you find the x-intercepts and the vertex of the equation.
(-5, 0), (-2, 0), (-3/2, 49/4)
You use those coordinates to find the sides of the triangle and then you use the lengths to find the semiperimeter.
Lastly, you use Heron's formula to compute the area.
270 dollars because 1440 divided by 12 equals 120. 120 times 2.25
is $270.000
(y=4x/5-9/5) 5
5y=4x-9
(-4x+5y=-9) -1
4x+5y=9
Hope this helped you!! :)
Hi there!
Since the triangle is equilateral, all of its sides are congruent. This means that to solve, we can set the two given equations equal to each other.
2(x - 8) = 1/2x + 8
2x - 16 = 1/2x + 8
1.5x - 16 = 8
1.5x = 24
x = 16
Now that we know what x is, we can plug that in for x in the equation for ZY.
2(16 - 8) = ZY
ZY = 2(8)
ZY = 16 units
And here is the work to show that XZ is also 16.
1/2(16) + 8 = XZ
XZ = 8 + 8
XZ = 16
Hope this helps!! :)
