The answer is 5/9 because there are a total of 5 other colors besides blue
In the comment of the other answer, you said that the rectangle is 24 x 18 ft.
First, we have to find out how many square feet that is, and then we can convert it to square yards.
The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width.
A = l x w
A = 24 x 18
A = 432 square feet
To find out how many square yards that is, we divide it by 3, because 1 yard is 3 feet.
432 ÷ 3 = 144
The area of a 24x18ft rectangle is 144 square yards.
Answer:
The area of the triangle is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the fact that the area of the triangle having u and v as adjacent sides is given by

We know that we want to take a cross product to compute the area of the triangle, but we need to be careful because it doesn't make sense if we take the cross product of points.
The first step is to build some vectors that describe this triangle.
According with the graph we can build the vectors:
and 
The vector
is the difference of point B minus point A

and the vector
is the difference of point C minus point A

Next we need to find the cross product of this vectors.

This is the definition of cross product of two vectors in space:
Let
and
be vectors in space. The cross product of
and
is the vector

Applying this definition we get



The area of the triangle is

Answer:
x = 14
y = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
y = x + 8
4x - 2y = -12
Solve
_____________
Since we see that the first equation has y alone, we can substitute it into the values of y in the second equation.
4x - 2(x + 8) = -12
Distribute :
4x - (2(x) + 2(8)) = -12
4x - 2x +16 = -12
Combine like terms :
2x + 16 = -12
Subtract 16 from both sides :
2x = -28
Divide 2 from both sides to get x alone :
x = 14
Now that we know what x is, substitute it in the first equation to get y :
y = (14) + 8
y = 22
Answer:
y=-2x+6
