Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

12


Discussion:

The two triangles shown are congruent by the SAS postulate so the area of a single triangle is one-half that of the rectangle.  That is,

Area = (1/2) * 24 = 12


Thank you,

MrB

If you have ordered pairs (4, 6) and (2, 3). WHAT IS THE SLOPE OF THE LINE?
tangare [24]

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, I can represent this equation as rise over run

the coordinates 4,6 are subcoordinates 1

y: 6 - 3 = 3

x: 4 - 2 = 2

Since it is RISE over run then Y is the numerator and X is the denominator.

So the slope is 3/2.

The fraction 5/8 is also the equation of 5 divided by 8, so we just do 5 divided by 8, which is

2/3 of the women at the party wear jewelry. 1/4 of the women wear a black dress. If there are 50 more women wearing jewelry than
Alinara [238K]

To solve this question, let's start by writing down what we know. First of all, let's make a variable, x, which will stand for the number of women at the party (because that's what we want to find). Using this variable, we know:

2/3x have jewelry

1/4x have a black dress

Half the people wearing a black dress also have jewelry, so we know that there is an overlap of 1/4x ÷ 2 = 1/8x between the jewelry and black dress.

To account for this overlap, we can subtract it from both sides. We get

2/3x - 1/8x = 13/24x

1/4x - 1/8x = 1/8x

We know that there are 50 more women with a black dress, so:

13/24x = 1/8x + 50

Simplifying, we get:

13/24x = 3/24x + 50

10/24x = 50

x = 50*24/10 = 120

That means that there were 120 women at the party.
