Equation of shaded triangle is
.
Solution:
Length of the rectangle = 14 ft
Breadth of the rectangle = 8 ft
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth
= 14 × 8
In this rectangle the diagonal splits the rectangle into two equal halves.
Area of the shaded triangle = Half of area of rectangle

Area of the shaded triangle = 
Hence the equation can be used to calculate the area of the shaded
triangle is
.
Complete Question
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat. The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat.
Write and solve an equation to find the weights of the cat and the dog.
Answer:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's represent:
Weight of cat = x
Weight of Dog = y
A dog weighs 2 pounds less than 3 times the weight of a cat.
y = 3x - 2........ Equation 1
The dog weighs twenty two more pounds than the cat
y = x + 22....... Equation 2
The equation is given as:
y = y
3x - 2 = x + 22
Collect like terms
3x - x = 22 + 2
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12 pounds
Solving for y using any of the equations:
y = 3x - 2
y = 3 × 12 - 2
y = 36 - 2
y = 34 pounds
Therefore:
Weight of cat = x = 12 pounds
Weight of Dog = y = 34 pounds
Answer:
1 no
2 I don't know
3 no
4 yes
5 2.5 is the slope
6 -0.5
7 no slope
Step-by-step explanation:
1 no because the y overlaps
2 not sure
3 it over laps
4 it never overlaps
5 y=2.5x-3
6 y=-0.5x+1
7 no slope it's just x=-2
for the 5-7 you can type that into demos and get more info
y=mx+b
m is the slope and b is y intercept
What figure is there, nothing is shown. Name?
