Answer:
The answer is 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = Length times width. Since division and multiplcation are inverse operations, we can do 24 divided by 3 to get 8, so to get the area of 24, you would do 8 x 3.
The x coordinates are 3 and -5. They add to 3+(-5) = -2
Cut this in half to get -2/2 = -1
The x coordinate of the midpoint is x = -1
-------------------
The y coordinates are 2 and 5. They add to 2+5 = 7.
Then we cut this in half to get 7/2 = 3.5
The y coordinate of the midpoint is y = 3.5
-------------------
Overall, the midpoint is (-1, 3.5)
<h3>Answer: (-1, 3.5) which is the same as (-1, 7/2)</h3>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Using FOIL (First, outer, inner, last)
First, we multiply 3x and x to get
(First)
We then multiply 3x and 1 to get
(outer)
Then 4 and x to get
(Inner)
Then multiply 1 and 4 to get
(last)
Since the quadratics are all positive, we add all the terms together to get:
. Since 3x and 4x are like terms, we add them together and simplify to get:

And since we can't simplify any further, that's our answer!
Hope this helps :D
