Although the question is incomplete, I have seen it before.
The equations are:
3a + 6b = 12
-3a + 6b = -12
Adding the equations, we get:
12b = 0
And b = 0
Answer: 36 units squared.
Explanation:
Area of a traingle is given by,
| 0.5{x1(y2-y3) + x2(y3-y1) + x3(y1-y2)} |
Accepting the values of the coordinates in x's and y's,
x1 =0, y1=0
x2=3, y2=8
x3 =9, y3=0
= | 0.5 × (-72)|
= 36 unit squared.
Commutative, because no matter how you group the equation you will still get to same answer
The answer is C, because there are two different numbers correlated to the same number on the Y side. The table does not represent a function.
