Answer:

x intercept : (5,0)

y intercept : (0,-2)

2/5 is the slope

Step-by-step explanation:

when finding the intercept of a line with ax + by = c you make the other variable 0. This is due to the fact that if it is x intercept it it (x,0) and if it is y intercept it is (0,y) so if you plug in the other variable is 0.

x intercept : (5,0)

y intercept : (0,-2)

When finding a slop and knowing 2 points you can use the formula.

y(2nd one) - y(1st one)

---------------------------------

x(2nd one) - x(1st one)

-2 - 0 -2 2

--------- = -------- = -------

0 - 5 -5 5

2/5 is the slope

Hope this helps

Diagonal of the parallelogram divides the parallelogram in to two equal areas.

So area of parallelogram = 2(area of triangle)

According to the given diagram,

AB= 8, AD = 5 and BD = 11

So according to the Heron's formula,

Area of triangle = $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\\\\where,\\ s =\frac{a + b + c }{2}$

and a, b and c are the three sides of the triangle

Area of triangle ABD = $s=\frac{8 + 5 + 11}{2} \\\\s = \frac{24}{2}\\\\s = 12Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{12(12 - 8) (12 - 5) (12 - 11)}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{12(4) (7) (1)}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = \sqrt{336}\\\\Area of triangle ABD = 18.33$
