Check the picture below.
you really have two rectangles, a 6x10 and a 6x5, and surely you know what those areas are, so sum them up, and that's the area of the polygon.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You can split the coins into 3 groups, each of them has 3 coins. Weigh group 1 vs group 2, if one is lighter, that group has the fake coin. If both groups weigh the same, then group 3 has the fake coin.
Continue to split the group that has the fake coin into 3 groups, each group has 1 coin. Now apply the same procedure and we can identify the fake coin.
Total of scale usage is 2
b) if you have coins then you can apply the same approach and find the fake coin with just n steps. By splitting up to 3 groups each step, after each step you should be able to narrow down your suspected coin by 3 times.
Step 1: you narrow down to group of coins
Step 2: you narrow down to group of coins
Step 3: you narrow down to group of coins
...
Step n: Step 1: you narrow down to group of coin
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
To calculate m use the slope formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, 4)
m = = -
, hence
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (8, 4), then
4 = - + c ⇒ c = 4 +
=
y = - x +
← equation of line
