Well I THINK triangle ABC is just a stretched out version of triangle DEF.
To find the area of a triangle, you multiply base and height, and divide by 2.
Area of DEF is 6, so that means that (4 * x)/2 = 6.
6*2 = 12....
4 * x = 12........
4 * 3 = 12.
x = 3.
Comparing DEF to ABC: ABC's base is 3 times as long as DEF's. So that means the height must be three times as long.
3*3 = 9.
(12 * 9)/2 =54
As we know y=3/4x-3
Let's put it in the second equation
3/4x-3=1/4x+1
3/4 x -1/4 x = 1+3
2/4 x = 4
X= 4*4/2
x=8
Put x= 8 in first equation
y= 3/4 *8 -3
y=6-3
y=3
Check the answer
3=3/4 *8 -3
3=6-3
3=3
Correct
So(y, x) = (3,8)
Because x=8 and y=3
Hi there Maebe, since the ratio is 3:1 your answer is 96.
The ratio 3:1 is just saying Juanita has 3 times whatever Elita has. So, Elita’s 32 times 3 equals 96. :) I hope I’ve helped you. Please give me feedback if you need more help understanding!
Answer:
$1.69
Step-by-step explanation:
Half a dollar = $0.50
Eight dimes = $0.80
Six nickels = $0.30
Nine pennies = $0.09
Total = $0.50 + $0.80 + $0.30 + $0.09 = $1.69
