One factor in flood safety along a levee is the area that will absorb water should the levee break. The coordinates that make up

Anit [1.1K]

Let

$A(0,0)\\ B (2.8, 2.1)\\C(4.3, 4.4)$

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The figure is a triangle

we know that

The Heron's Formula is a method for calculating the area of a triangle when you know the lengths of all three sides.

Hero's Formula is equal to

$Area=\sqrt{p*(p-a)*(p-b)*(p-c)}$

where

p is is half the perimeter of the triangle

a,b,c are the lengths of the sides of a triangle

so

Step $1$

Find the length sides of the triangle

a) Find the distance AB

$d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Substitute

$d =\sqrt{(2.1-0)^{2} +(2.8-0)^{2}}$

$d =3.5\ mi}$

b) Find the distance AC

$d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Substitute

$d =\sqrt{(4.4-0)^{2} +(4.3-0)^{2}}$

$d =6.15\ mi}$

c) Find the distance BC

$d =\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2} +(x2-x1)^{2}}$

Substitute

$d =\sqrt{(4.4-2.1)^{2} +(4.3-2.8)^{2}}$

$d =2.75\ mi}$

Step $2$

Find the perimeter of the triangle

$Perimeter= 3.5+6.15+2.75 =12.4\ mi$

Find the half of the perimeter

$p=\frac{12.4}{2} = 6.2\ mi$

Step $3$

Find the area of the triangle

$Area=\sqrt{6.2*(6.2-3.5)*(6.2-6.15)*(6.2-2.75)}$

$Area=\sqrt{6.2*(2.7)*(0.05)*(3.45)}$

$Area= 1.69\ mi^{2}$

therefore

the answer is the option

a) 1.65 mi^2.

X^{2} - 8x + 7 = 0 Solve by completing the square. Also can you include steps?

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

{1, 7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x^2 - 8x + 7 = 0.

We want to modify the first two terms to resemble x^2 - ax + b - b, where a is the coefficient (here -8) of the x term and b is the square of half of a.

Here, a = -8. Half of that is -4. The square of -4 is 16, and this is the value of b.

Write out x^2 - 8x as x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16. This is the perfect square of -4, added to x^2 - 8x and then subtracted from the result

Then the original equation, x^2 - 8x + 7 = 0, can be rewritten as:

x^2 - 8x + 16 - 16 + 7 = 0, and then as (x - 4)^2 - 9, or (x - 4)^2 = 9.

We want to solve this result for x. To do this, take the square root of both sides:

x - 4 = ±√9, or x - 4 = ±3.

Adding 4 to both sides, we get:

x = 4 ± 3. Thus, the solutions are x = 4 + 3 = 7 and x = 4 - 3 = 1.
