Answer:

The answer to your question is 37.5 u²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of a triangle = \frac{base x height }{2}

Base

dAB = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2}- (y2 - y1)^{2}  }

dAB = \sqrt{(-6 -6)^{2} + (-4 -5)^{2} }

dAB = \sqrt{144 + 81}

dAB = \sqrt{225}

dAB = 15 u

height

dCD =  \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2}- (y2 - y1)^{2}  }

dCD = \sqrt{(2 +1)^{2} + (2 - 6)^{2} }

dCD = \sqrt{9 + 16}

dCD = \sqrt{25}

dCD = 5 u

Area

        = \frac{15 x 5}{2}

        = 37.5 u²

Answer:

\frac{7}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Carrie has 2 meters of ribbon. She cuts off pieces of ribbon that are 5/10 meter, 1/10 meter, and 7/10 meter

Lets add all the cut of pieces and subtract it from 2 meters

\frac{5}{10} +\frac{1}{10}+\frac{7}{10}=\frac{13}{10}

Now we subtract 13/10 from 2 meters

2 - \frac{13}{10}

To subtract , make the denominator same

\frac{2*10}{1*10} - \frac{13}{10}=\frac{20}{10} - \frac{13}{10}=\frac{7}{10}

7/10 meter is the remaining piece of ribbon

Kamila [148]

Based on the number of hours in the work week, the cost of the laborers and masons, worth of the materials and the profit, the estimated cost of the job can be written as a mathematical statement of A. 3 x $15 x 40 + 4 x $25 x 40 + $3,268 + $700 = $

The total estimated cost is $9,768

<h3>What is the total estimated cost?</h3>

The total estimated cost of the job can be found by the formula:

= (Number of laborers needed x Cost of laborers x Number of hours in work week) + (Number of masons x cost of masons x number of hours in work week) + materials worth + Required profit

The total estimated cost is therefore:

= (3 x $15 x 40) + (4 x $25 x 40) + $3,268 + $700

= 1,800 + 4,000 + 3,268 + 700

= $9,768

If a/b=2 what is the value of 4b/a​
bazaltina [42]

Anwer:

4b/a=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets assume:

a = 4 & b = 2

So a/b would equal 2.

4b/a indicates that you are going to multiply b times 4, meaning that in this scenario you would multiply 2 times 4.

4(2) = 8

and 8 divided by (4) is 2.

Why 4? Because remember a = 4 (in this scenario).

Other examples:

10/5 = 2, -->  4(5) = 20, -->  20/10 = 2.

20/10 = 2. --> 4(10) = 40, --> 40/20 = 2.
