Complete Question: You are building a shelf that fits in a corner in the figure the entire shelf is XYZ each unit in the coordinate plane represents one inch find the area of the shelf.

Answer:

112.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the shelf = ½*base*height.

The base is the distance between Z(0, 5) and Y(15, 5)

The height is the distance between X(15, 20) and Y(15, 5).

Therefore area of the shelf = ½*ZY*XY

Use the distance formula to find ZY and XY.

Distance between Z(0, 5) and Y(15, 5):

ZY = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

Z(0, 5) = (x_1, y_1)

Y(15, 5) = (x_2, y_2)

ZY = \sqrt{(15 - 0)^2 + (5 - 5)^2}

AB = \sqrt{(15)^2 + (0)^2}

AB = \sqrt{225 + 0} = \sqrt{225}

AB = 15

Distance between X(15, 20) and Y(15, 5):

XY = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

X(15, 20) = (x_1, y_1)

Y(15, 5) = (x_2, y_2)

XY = \sqrt{(15 - 15)^2 + (5 - 20)^2}

XY = \sqrt{(0)^2 + (-15)^2}

XY = \sqrt{0 + 225} = \sqrt{225}

XY = 15

Area of shelf = ½*15*15 = ½*225 = 112.5 units²

-3x+10=34 solve for x
goblinko [34]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h3>x=−8</h3><h3 />

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Let's solve your equation step-by-step.</h3>

−3x+10=34

<h3>Step 1: Subtract 10 from both sides.</h3>

−3x+10−10=34−10

−3x=24

<h3>Step 2: Divide both sides by -3.</h3><h3 />

−3x/−3 = 24/−3

<h3>x=−8</h3>

Pweaseee help!!!!!!!!!!!!!​
juin [17]

Answer:

Andre.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre's group was asked to write an expression equivalent to 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Andre gives the expression 7p²q + 7pq² - 1 - 2p²q - 9, which gives the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Jill gives the expression 5p²q + 2 pq² - 6 + 5pq² - 3, which does not give the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Now, Anuj gives the expression 4p²q + 7pq²- 7 + 2p²q - 3, which also does not give the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Again, Marsha gives the expression 5p²q + 5 pq²- 10 + 3pq², which also does not gives the expression 5p²q + 7pq² - 10.

Hence, only Andre gives the correct expression. (Answer)
