Answer: 300
Step-by-step explanation:
- 300-256=44 and 256-200=56
- Since 256 is closer to 300 than it is to 200, 300 is the answer.
Yes a negative x a negative ( eg -2 x -3 ) = a positive ( eg 6 )
Did you write Letter choice B. Correctly?
Take out the 3 , to make the vertex form easier;)
The problem statement describes the dimensions. The base length is 15 ft; the height is 10 ft.
The area of a parallelogram is the product of base length and height, just as it is for a rectangle.
A = bh
A = (15 ft)(10 ft) = 150 ft²
Mr Morris should purchase 150 ft² of material.
_____
If you compare the area to a 15 ft by 10 ft rectangle, you see the "excess" triangle at the left end just matches the "missing" triangle at the right end. The A=bh formula still works even if the top and base are offset by more than the width of the base.
