Answer:

The answer to your question is 30 u²

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertices

R(-4, 2)

S (1, 2)

T (-5, -4)

Find the area using matrices            X    Y

                                          R             -4     2

                                          S              1     2

                                          T             -5   -4

                                          R             -4    2

                                  =| (-4 x 2) + (1 x -4) + (-5 x 2) - [(-4 x -4) + (-5 x 2) + (1 x 2)]|

                                  = |-8 - 4 - 10 - [ 16 - 10 + 2]|

                                  = |-22 - [ 8]|

                                  = |-22 - 8|

                                  = |-30|

                                 = |-30|

Area =                          30 u²

What is equation is equivalent to 6(3p-2)=20?
Simora [160]

Answer:

p=\frac{16}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

6(3p-2)=20

Distribute the brackets.

6(3p)+6(-2)=20

18p-12=20

Add 12 on both sides.

18p-12+12=20+12

18p=20+12

18p=32

Divide 18 on both sides.

\frac{18p}{18}=\frac{32}{18}

p=\frac{16}{9}

Try this:
1) if ratio=100/3, then 100/3=2600/x
x=26*3=78 p.
2) if (-2) ⇒ -3*(4)=-12 ⇒ answer: (-2;-12)
if (-1) ⇒ -3*(1)=-3 ⇒ answer: (-1;-3)
if 0 ⇒ -3*0=0 ⇒ answer: (0;0)
if 1 ⇒ -3*1=-3 ⇒ answer (1;-3)
if 2 ⇒ -3*4=-12 ⇒ answer: (2;-12)

A spray irrigation system waters a section of a farmer’s field. If the water shoots a distance of 85 feet, what is the area that
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

3,781

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will find the area of the whole circle and use that to find teh area of the 60º section.

First, recognize the formula for the area of a circle:

A = 3.14r^{2}

In this scenario, the radius (<em>r</em>) is 85 feet:

A = 3.14(85)^{2}

A circle is 360º and we only require the area of 60º. 360º / 60º = 6 so we will divide by 6:

A = \frac{3.14(85)^{2} }{6}

Finally, we will simplify and round:

A = 3,781
