Where's the "triangle with alt. BD?"  This problem can be solved without the diagram, but the solution would be easier with it.

BD is the altitude.  Find the length of BD by finding the dist. between (-1,4) and (2,4); it is 2-(-1), or 3.  |BD| = 3.

I've graphed the triangle myself and have found that the "base" of the triangle is the vertical line thru (2,1) and (2,6); its length is 6-1, or 5.

Thus, the area of this triangle is  A = (b)(h) / 2, or  A = (5)(3) / 2 = 10/3 square inches.

Answer:

The formula to find the area of a triangle is as follows: A=1/2(base)(height). That should help you solve the equation.

What is value of x and y if<br> Y=-2x+8 and Y=3x-7
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

X=5 y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Set them equal to each other so...

-2x+8=3x-7

Simplify by balancing out the equation so

-5x=-1

So x=5

Now plug it into either y equation

-2(5)+8

-10+8

Y=-2

Hope this helps!

The scatter plot below shows the relationship between the diameter (x), in mm, and mass f(x), in grams, of a berry: ordered pair
ivann1987 [24]
For this case the first thing we must observe is that the mass increases 0.4 grams when the diameter increases 1 millimeter.
 Therefore, the slope of the line is given by:
 m = 0.4
 Thus, the function that best suits the table is given by:
 f (x) = -4 + 0.4x
 For example, for x = 20 we have:
 f (20) = -4 + 0.4 (20)
 f (20) = -4 + 8
 f (20) = 4
 The result, matches the table.
 Answer:
 The function that is best represented by the scatter plot is: 
 f (x) = -4 + 0.4x
