From the picture, we can see that ΔLSP and ΔLRN are similar, so corresponding sides are proportionate:


LN : LP = 28:12 = 7:3


Therefore, the LRN sides is 7/3 of the corresponding side of LSP.


Then, it states that the area of LSP = 50, and area of a triangle is (1/2)bh, so we set up the equation


Area of LSP = (1/2)bh = 50 ← Remember how the corresponding sides are 7/3 of LSP? Therefore, the area of LRN:


LRN = (1/2)(7b/3)(7h/3) ← Take out the 7/3 and multiply them together

= (49/9)(1/2)bh ← From LSP, we know that (1/2)bh = 50, so plug that in

= (49/9)*50 ≈ 272.222 units ²

Find the equation of the line through point (3,−3) and parallel to y=3x−4. Use a forward slash (i.e. "/") for fractions (e.g. 1/
exis [7]

Answer:

y =3x - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm fairly certain this is the answer.

Consider the point (3,-3). In terms of variables this is written (x,y).

Remember that the equation for slope is y = mx + b.

In that equation, "b" is your y-intercept, and "m" is your slope.

If 2 lines are parallel, they have the same slope but different y-intercepts. So you can use the slope from the equation y=3x-4 to find the parallel line. You can also plug in the values 3 and -3 to solve for b, our y-intercept.

If we set up the equation, we have -3 = 3(3) + b.

Now solve for b.

-3 = 9 + b

Combine like terms, so that -12 = b, and you have your y-intercept.

To create the equation, take out the coordinate pair that the line passes through, and only have the SLOPE and the Y-INTERCEPT showing in the equation.

Therefore, y = 3x - 12
