The valley in California has an elevation of feet "below sea level".
Below sea level means below 0 feet, so it'd have -5 feet
The one in Arizona would be lower than it, so the elevation will definitely be -9 feet
check the picture below.
so the triangular prism is really just 3 rectangles and 2 right-triangles,
now, we know the base of one of the triangles is 2.6, what's its height?
since it's a right-triangle, we can simply use the pythagorean theorem to get "h".
so, we can now, simply get the area of both of the triangles and the three rectangles and sum them up, and that's the area of the triangular prism.
![\bf \stackrel{two~triangles}{2\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(2.6)(4.5) \right]}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(2.6\cdot 4.3)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 3.9)}~~+~~\stackrel{rectangle}{(4.3\cdot 5.2)} \\\\\\ 11.7+11.18+22.36\implies \blacktriangleright 45.24 \blacktriangleleft](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20%5Cstackrel%7Btwo~triangles%7D%7B2%5Cleft%5B%20%5Ccfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%282.6%29%284.5%29%20%5Cright%5D%7D~~%2B~~%5Cstackrel%7Brectangle%7D%7B%282.6%5Ccdot%204.3%29%7D~~%2B~~%5Cstackrel%7Brectangle%7D%7B%284.3%5Ccdot%203.9%29%7D~~%2B~~%5Cstackrel%7Brectangle%7D%7B%284.3%5Ccdot%205.2%29%7D%0A%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%0A11.7%2B11.18%2B22.36%5Cimplies%20%5Cblacktriangleright%2045.24%20%5Cblacktriangleleft)
For the first one it's 90.5, I know cause I just took the test and it's right. The second one I'm not sure..
Hey there!!
The given set is a function
( x , y ) - this is the form in which we write co-ordinates
In order to be a function , at least x values shall repeat.
Noted down all the x values
2 , -1, 4 , -2
None of the values is repeating.
Hence, the given data is a function
Hope my answer helps!
