4 0
The formula of the area of a triangle:
A_\Delta=\dfrac{bh}{2}
b - the bash - the height
We have:
b - the base3b - the height486 - the area

Substitute:
\dfrac{3b\cdot b}{2}=486\ \ \ |\cdot2\\\\3b^2=972\ \ \ |:3\\\\b^2=324\to b=\sqrt{324}\\\\b=16\to h=3b=3\cdot18=54
Answer: The length of the height is equal 54 units.

A line passes through (−1, 7) and (2, 10).
Pachacha [2.7K]
The slope m of a line through points A(x_1, y_1) and B(x_2, y_2)  is given by :<span>

\displaystyle{m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}&#10;



Thus, the slope of the line passing through points </span><span>(−1, 7) and (2, 10) is 

</span>\displaystyle{m= \frac{10-7}{2-(-1)}= \frac{3}{3}=1
<span>

The equation of a line with slope m passing through a point P(a, b) is given by
                                        (y-b)=m(x-a).


We can consider any of the points (-1, 7), or (2, 10). Let's choose (2, 10):

                                        y-10=1(x-2)
                                        y-10=x-2
                                           y-x=-2+10
                                           y-x=8
                                       

  Answer: </span><span>C. −x+y=8</span>

What is the best definition for combining like terms
uysha [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Combing like terms means that you combine the terms that are alike. So, if you have integers you would combine the integers. If you had a variable like x, you would combine everything with x. For instance, 2x+4+3+7x, to combine like terms add 4+3 and 2x+7x.
