Answer: 530.66 units²
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The first two rows of coefficients are identical, so by inspection, the determinant is 0.
Answer:
5 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
2 1/3+(2 2/3) (1 1/8)= 5 1/3
it would be 48 because you would multiply 8 and 12 but then divide by 2
from the question, (-2,2) and (1,2) have the same y value so you can use that as your base and easily find the perpendicular height using the y axis since it's parallel to the x axis.
the third point, (0,-6), to the base is your height
use the sum of the positive of the y values to find your height (because height can't be negative): 6+2 = 8
area of a triangle = 1/2 bh = 1/2 x 3 x 8 = 12
Note: 1/2 bh only works because (-2,2) and (1,2) form a line parallel to the x axis
