Answer:
Hey there!
For the first question we use the triangle area formula: 1/2bh, or 1/2(8)(5). This gives us 20 for the area.
For the second question we get a trapezoid, since the cross section does not pass through the vertex.
Hope this helps :)
Hey there!
-2<3x+1
= 3x + 1 < -2
SUBTRACT 1 to BOTH SIDES
3x + 1 - 1 < -2 + 1
CANCEL out: 1 - 1 because that gives you 0
KEEP: -2 + 1 because that helps you solve for x
-2 + 1 = -3
New EQUATION: 3x > -3
DIVIDE 3 to BOTH SIDES
3x/3 > -3/3
CANCEL out: 3/3 because that gives you 1
KEE3 -3/3 because that helps us compare for x
-3/3 = -1
Answer to the equation: x > -1
OVERALL Answer: x > -1; It is an OPENED circle shaded to the right starting at -1 (Option A.)
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
