Answer:

  28 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula usually used for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = (1/2)bh

where b is the base length and h is the height.

Since the bottom two points lie on the horizontal line y=1, it is convenient to choose the line segment between them as the base. That segment has a length that extends from x=-3 to x=4, so it is 7 units long.

The height is the perpendicular distance from the third point (1, 9) to the base (line y=1). The distance in the x direction is the distance from y=1 to y=9, a distance of 8 units.

Putting these numbers for base length and height into the area formula, we get

  A = (1/2)(7 units)(8 units) = 28 square units

The length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is 137 units. The length of one leg of the triangle is 105. Gina wrote the foll
OLga [1]
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
b^2 = c^2 - a^2
b^2 = 137^2 - 105^2
b^2 = 18769 - 11025
b^2 = 7744
b = sqrt 7744
b = 88

Gina's step is not correct... the length of the unknown leg is not 7744, it is the sqrt of 7744, which is 88

Solve for . 5w-26=-4(w-7) Simplify your answer as much as possible. PLZ HELP
NikAS [45]

Answer:

w = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5w-26 = - 4 (w - 7)   multiply -4 through

5w - 26 = - 4w + 28  add 4w to each side to cancel it out on the right

5w + 4w - 26 = 28  

9w - 26 = 28  Now add 26 to each side

9w - 26 + 26 = 28 + 26

9w = 54   Now divide each side by 9

(9w)/9 = 54/9

w = 6

Solve the following equation: 8 - 9x = 27.
bearhunter [10]

The given equation is

8-9x=27

To solve for x, we have to subtract 8 to both sides

8-9x-9 = 27-8 \\ -9x = 19

Now we need to get rid of -9 from the left side, and for that we do division

\frac{-9x}{-9} = \frac{19}{-9}

x = - \frac{19}{9}
