We know that the points at which the parabola intersects the x axis are
(-5,0) and (1,0)
So the extent between these two points would be the base of the triangle
lets find the length of the base using the distance formula
the base b=6
We will get the height of the triangle when we put x=0 in the equation
y=a(0+5)(0-1)
y=-5a
so height = -5a (we take +5a since it is the height)
We know that the area of the triangle =
× 6 × (5a) = 12
15a=12
a=
Answer: Answer C is correct, 50.9.
4.25 is the correct answer
Answer:
D
F
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines are lines of equal distance apart (equidistant), that are on the same plane but they never meet
Perpendicular lines meet thus they are not parallel lines
Also, lines that intersect , meet, thus they are not parallel lines
