Step-by-step explanation:
I think you did not copy the correct information of your answer options here.
because, as you wrote the 4 options, none of them are correct.
remember, the area of a triangle is base times height divided by 2
A = (b × h) / 2
given the numbers in the problem statement
b = 5, h = 8
A = (5 × 8) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20
you need to pick the answer option in your original document that would lead to 20.
none of the 4 options you gave me here would result in 20. so, there must be something wrong with them.
Answer:
-10/15 ..................................
A line parallel to the given one will have the same slope, 0.5. For the purpose here, it is convenient to start with a point-slope form of the equation, then simplify. For slope m and point (h, k), the equation of the line can be written as
... y = m(x -h) +k
We have m=0.5, (h, k) = (-9, 12), so the equation is ...
... y = 0.5(x +9) +12
... y = 0.5x +16.5
B. X,2X,3X cuz the sum of X and 2X is 3X
