Answer:

Option A. 10\ units^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the rectangle is equal to

A=LW

where

L is the length of rectangle

W is the width of rectangle

we have

A(-3,1),B(-2,-1),C(2,1),D(1,3)

Plot the vertices

see the attached figure

L=AD=BC

W=AB=DC

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

<em>Find the distance AD</em>

A(-3,1),D(1,3)

substitute in the formula

AD=\sqrt{(3-1)^{2}+(1+3)^{2}}

AD=\sqrt{(2)^{2}+(4)^{2}}

AD=\sqrt{20}

AD=2\sqrt{5}\ units

<em>Find the distance AB</em>

A(-3,1),B(-2,-1)

substitute in the formula

AB=\sqrt{(-1-1)^{2}+(-2+3)^{2}}

AB=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(1)^{2}}

AB=\sqrt{5}

AB=\sqrt{5}\ units

Find the area

A=(2\sqrt{5})*(\sqrt{5})=10\ units^{2}

3/4 picked apples. If 120 students picked apples, how many picked bananas
Oxana [17]

Answer:

40 students picked bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 picked apples    

1 - 3/4 = 1/4 picked bananas

3/4x = 120

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4/3

4/3 * (3/4x) = 120/1 * (4/3)

x = 480/3

x = 160

                                               Total of 160 students

                                               /                                   \

                                   120 = apples                  160 - 120 = 40 = bananas

40 students picked bananas

Hope this helps :)

What are the answers??? Please help!!!
viktelen [127]
Remember when you see those two signs next to each other its “kao” which is keep add opposite so for b its 6-(-3) but you do keep add opposite so now it’s 6+3=9. for c it’s -2-(-5) and we still do kao which now it’s -2+5 different signs you subtract so now it’s 3 we always keep the sign of the higher variable and 5 is positive so the answer is positive.
