In a square all 4 sides are equal, so when you cut it along the diagonal to make a triangle, both the base and the height of the triangle would be the same.


The area of a triangle is found by the formula 1/2 x base x height

Since the base and height are the same the formula becomes Area = 1/2 x S^2 ( where S is the length of a side).

The area is given as 0.72 square units.

Now you have 0.72 = 1/2 x S^2

First multiply both sides by 2:

1.44 = S^2

To find S, take the square root of both sides:

S = √1.44

S = 1.2

The side length is 1.2 units.

What is the slope-intercept equation of the line below? A.y=2x+3 B.y=-2x-3 C.y=2x-3 D.y=-2x+3
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, lets find the y-intercept. The y-intercept where the line passes through the y-axis. In this case, it is -3.

Now, to find the slope, lets find the next non-decimal point(that way it is easier on us). That would be (1,-1). Now, to get to this point from the y-intercept, we have to go left 1 unit, and up 2 units. So, the change in y over change in x = 2/1 or 2. Now, using this information, we can form the equation:

y = 2x + -3. or y = 2x - 3.

hoa [83]

Answer:

Option 2) y = 26    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The individual wants to have two hot dogs for each guest, and 6 extra hot logs in case some teammates bring friends.

Thus, the dependent variable is the number of hot dogs.

\text{y: Number of hot dogs}

The independent variable is the number of teammates.

\text{x: Number of teammates}}

Thus, the linear relation between the dependent and the independent variable is given as:

y(x) = 2x + 6

We have to find the value of dependent variable when independent variable is 10

For x = 10

y(10) = 2(10) + 6 = 26

Thus, the correct answer is

Option 2) y = 26
