Equation:
y + 2 = 1/3(x+1)
Assuming you are solving for Y:
y + 2 = 1/3(x) + 1/3(1)
(y + 2) - 2 = (1/3x + 1/3) - 2
y = 1/3x + 1/3 - 2
<u>y = 1/3x - 5/3</u>
By pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
We can find that PL is 12.65
and then by altitude theorem
MA*LA=PA^2
we can find the value of MA
12MA=16
MA=1.33
then by the pythagorean theorem
we can use to find PM
MA^2+PA^2=PM^2
so PM=4.22
then to find the are you multiply length by width
PM*PL
12.65*4.22
So the area is 53.38
Foil method:
FOIL stands for
first-multiply the first term in each set of parenthesis
outer-multiply the outer term in each of the perenthesis
inner- multiply the inner term in each of the parenthesis
last- multiply the last term in each of the parenthesis
(3x+8)(x+1)
(3x*x)=3x^2
(3x*1)=3x
8*x=8x
8*1=8
thus we shall have:
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Distributive property:
(3x+8)(x+1)
3x(x+1)+8(x+1)
3x^2+3x+8x+8
=3x^2+11x+8
Both methods are efficient, it all depends with the users preference
