Answer:

The first thing you should do for this case is to draw the ordered pairs in the plane and join the points.

 The area you are looking for is the area of a rectangle plus the area of a triangle.

 Thus, the total area will be

 At = (8) * (4.5) + (1/2) * (4) * (2.5) = 41

 answer

 the area of the city is 41 units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

41 square miles If you draw the outline of the city, you'll realize that if you draw a line from point B to point D, that you can subdivide the city into a triangle and a trapezoid. After performing the division, you can then calculate the area of both polygons and the add their areas together. So first, let's deal with the trapezoid ABDE. The area of a trapezoid is the average of the length of the parallel sides multiplied by the height. The parallel sides are AB and DE. So: ((18-10)+(14-10))*(9-4.5)/2 =(9 + 4)*(4.5)/2 = 12*4.5/2 = 27 Now for the area of triangle BCD. The area of a triangle is 0.5*b*h where b is the base and h the height. I'll use BC as the base and the distance from BC to D as the height. So: (9-2)*(18-14)/2 = 7*4/2 = 14 And now to add the areas. 27 + 14 = 41 So the area of the city is 41 square miles. Note: The subdivision used is not the only possible subdivision, just one of the easier ones. I could have divided the city area into 3 triangles ABE, BDE, and BCD and solved it that way instead. It was just a happy coincidence that AB and DE were parallel and as such I was able to use trapezoid ABDE instead of the two triangles ABE and BDE.

marin [14]

Answer:

4 pieces with 3 sides

2 pieces with only the top

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to determine how many squares

9/3 = 3

12 /3 = 4

3*4 = 12

There will be 12 pieces of cake

There are 4 corners

They will have frosting on the top and two sides for 3 total sides

There will be 2 pieces will be in the middle with only the top frosted

What is the Quotient of 1 and 2/3 divided by 2 and 3/5
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

  25/39

Step-by-step explanation:

For division of mixed numbers, it often works well to first convert them to improper fractions. Then the division proceeds in the usual way: "invert and multiply", or "dot, swap."

__

  1\dfrac{2}{3}\div2\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{5}{3}\div\dfrac{13}{5}=\dfrac{5}{3}\cdot\dfrac{5}{13}\\\\=\dfrac{5\cdot5}{3\cdot13}=\boxed{\dfrac{25}{39}}

Your graphing calculator can do this, too.
