Answer: C)10.5


Step-by-step explanation:

Using distance formula,

Height of triangle =YW=\sqrt{(5-8)^2+(-1-(-1))^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(0)^2}=\sqrt{9}=3\ units

Base of triangle (side opposite to the vertex of triangle from which for altitude is formed)XZ=\sqrt{(5-5)^2+(4-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{(0)^2+(7)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7\ units

Thus the area of the triangle=\frac{1}{2}\times\ base\times\ height

=\frac{1}{2}\times3\times7=10.5\ units

Hence, the area of triangle = 10.5 units

Karolina [17]

Complete question :

At camp in Green Bay, Wisconsin, 7/9 of the participants were from Wisconsin. Of that group 3/5 were 12 years old. What fraction of the group was from Wisconsin and 12 years old?

Answer:

7/ 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction from Wisconsin = 7/9

Fraction who are 12 years old = 3/5

Fraction who are from Wisconsin and 12 years old

(Fraction from Wisconsin * Fraction who are 12 years old)

(7 / 9 * 3/ 5)

= (7 * 3) / (9 * 5)

= 21 / 45

= 7 / 15
