Sample Response: Plot each point in the coordinate plane. Find the distance between points to find that the base is 3 units and the height is 12 units. Apply the area formula, A = bh. 3 x 12 = 36 square units.

the formula for area of a rectangle is

Area = length x width

since both the length and the width of the rectangle lie on the same x and y axis, we can find the distance between the width and the distance between the length by subtracting

(-4,9) (-4,-3)

these points lie on the same x axis, so they create a vertical line

9-(-3) = 12

12 units is the distance between them

(-4,-3) (-1,-3)

these points lie on the same y axis, so they create a horizontal line

-1-(-4) = 3

3 units is the distance between them

now that we have the length and the width, we can find the area

A = 12 x 3

A = 36 units²

Answer:

16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defined by the formula: the number of desirable outcomes over the total outcomes. The total number of outcomes is the sum of all shoes that he could possibly pick:

5 + 7 + 1 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 2 + 3 = 36

And the desirable outcomes are those where he picks brown boots, which is 6 outcomes.

Using the formula for probability, we get the expression: 6/36 to represent the probability. It simplifies to 1/6 which is about 16.7%

find the present value that will grow to $7000 if the annual interest rate is 3.5% compounded quarterly for 9 uears
Gwar [14]
PV=FV/(1+i)^t

FV=7000, i=3.5%=0.035,t=9

put everything in the formula
PV=7000/(1+0.035)^9
PV=$5136.12

A system of equations is shown below.
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step1: Add 3 to both sides of the equation

2x -3 = 5x +6

    +3         +3 = 9

Step2: subtract 5x from both sides of the equation

2x = 5x +9

-5    -5

Step3: divide both sides of the equation by the same term

-3x(/ -3) = 9(/-3)    

<h3>X=-3</h3>

Step4: multiply -3 with 2

-3x2= -6

Step4: subtract -6 with 3

-6 - 3= -9

<h3>Y=-9</h3>

Step5: add the -9 to -3

-9 + -3 = -12

ANSWER: -12

<h3></h3>
