The formula for the area of a triangle is A=1/2*h*b
Therefore:
(1/2)*4*5.5=11
The area of the sail is 11 feet squared

Area of a triangle: (1/2)bh, where b = base and h = height

(1/2) x 4 x (11/2) 
= (4/2) x (11/2)
= 2 x (11/2) 
= 11

A line passes through the point (4 ‐6) and has a slope of ‐3/4 what is the equation
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

y= -3/4x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3/4 is the slope, so you replace m with the slope.

The y intercept is -3. If x is 4, and y is -6, we can plug that into an equation to find the y intercept. y=mx+b can change to -6= -3/4 * 4 + b. B = -3.

8x = 7x + 3<br><br> Would I combine the 8x and the 7x at all in this equation?
Kryger [21]
Yes...thats what u want to do. you want to get the x terms on one side and everything else on the other side.

8x = 7x + 3....so we will subtract 7x from both sides
8x - 7x = 7x - 7x + 3....simplify
1x, or just x = 3 (because ur 7x's cancelled each other out)

so ur answer is : x = 3

and u can check ur answer by subbing it back into the original equation.
8x = 7x + 3
8(3) = 7(3) + 3
24 = 21 + 3
24 = 24 (correct)

How many solutions does the equation have? <br><br> 25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 10 - x
AlexFokin [52]

Both sides are equal, so the equation has infinite solutions.


25 - 4x = 15 - 3x + 10 - x

= 25 - 4x = 25 - 3x - x

= 25 - 4x = 25 - 4x

What is the solution(s) for: 10n^2+n^2+16=0
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

n = (4 i)/sqrt(11) or n = -(4 i)/sqrt(11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for n:

11 n^2 + 16 = 0

Subtract 16 from both sides:

11 n^2 = -16

Divide both sides by 11:

n^2 = -16/11

Take the square root of both sides:

Answer: n = (4 i)/sqrt(11) or n = -(4 i)/sqrt(11)
