Answer:

A:102

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the points A(0,0),B(0,4a-5) and C(2a-+1,2a+6) form a triangle.

If angle ABC=90^{\circ}

We have to find the area of triangle ABC

If angle ABC= 90 degree

From given below figure

4a-5=2a+6

4a-2a=6+5

2a=11

a=\frac{11}{2}=5.5

Substitute the values then we get

B(0,17) and C (12,17)

Distance formula

\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

AB=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(17-0)^2}=17 units

BC=\sqrt{(12-0)^2+(17-17)^2}

BC=\sqrt{144+0}=\sqrt{144}=12 units

Area of triangle =\frac{1}{2}\times b\times h

Substitute the values

Then we get

Area of triangle ABC=\frac{1}{2}\times 17\times 12

Area of triangle ABC=102 square units

Answer: A: 102

how do you solve a system of equations approximately given tables without using equations or graphing?
solong [7]

system of equations means that we have a given number of equations with the same solutions.

If you only have tables, this means that you need to have one table for each equation:

For example, if you are working only with two variables, x and y, in those tables you can see the pints (x, y) that belong to each equation.

Now, a point (x, y) will be a solution of the system of equations only if it belongs to the data table for each equation

This would mean that if you graph those data sets, the graphs will intersect at the point (x, y) that belongs to all the tables of data.

another way may be using the data in the tables to construct the equations, but you said that you only want to use the tables, so this method can be discarded.

Margarita [4]
Take the equation: y = 520 + 14x and put each value from the table in for x and y.  

100 = 520 + 14 * -30
100 = 520 + -420
100 = 100   When we get an answer like this where the numbers on both sides of the equation match, we know that this (x,y) point is a part of the solution to the function.

So, you would work through each line in the table.  If they are all like the one above, the answer is Yes.  If not, it is no.

What is the nth term rule of the linear sequence below?
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

4n -13

Step-by-step explanation:

notice that the difference between the adjacent terms is 4.

nth term is given by:

nth term = first term + (n-1) × difference -n is any number

= -9 + (n-1) × 4

= -9 + 4n -4

= 4n -13
