Answer:

The area of quadrilateral ABCD is 139 unit^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Quadrilateral ABCD whose vertices are A(1,1) B(7,-3) C(12,2) D(7,21).

Now, to find the area.

The coordinates of the quadrilateral are A(1,1), B(7,-3), C(12,2), D(7,21).

So, to find the area we need to bisect the quadrilateral ABCD and get the triangles ABC and ADC and then calculate their areas:

In Δ ABC:

A(x_1,y_1)=(1,1)\:,\:B(x_2,y_2)=(7,-3)\:and\:C(x_3,y_3)=(12,2)

Now, to get the area of triangle ABC:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(-3-2)+(7)(2-1)+12(1--3)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(-5)+(7)(1)+12(4)\right|

On solving we get:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=25.

In Δ ADC:

A(x_1,y_1)=(1,1)\:,\:D(x_2,y_2)=(7,21)\:and\:C(x_3,y_3)=(12,2)

Now, to get the area of triangle ADC:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)\right|

Area\,of\,triangle\,=\,\frac{1}{2}\left|1(21-2)+(7)(2-1)+12(1-21)\right|

On solving it by same process as above we get:

Area\,of\,triangle\,=114

Now, to get the area of the quadrilateral we add the areas of the triangles ABC and ADC:

25+114\\=25+114\\=139\ unit^2

Therefore, area of quadrilateral ABCD is 139 unit^2.

Sam is delivering two refrigerators that each weigh 105 kilograms there is an elevator with a weight limit of 1,00 pounds
rosijanka [135]

Question:

Sam is delivering two refrigerators that each weigh 105 kilograms. There is an

elevator with a weight limit of 1,000 pounds. Can he take both refrigerators on the

elevator in one trip? (1 kilogram 2.2 pounds)

Answer: yes he can

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes he can.

He can if the total weight of the 2 refrigerator didn't exceed the weight limit of the elevator.

Therefore:

Since 1 refrigerator weigh 105kg

2 refrigerator = 2 x 105kg = 210kg

The weight limit of the elevator 1000pounds convert to kg.

Since

2.2 pounds = 1kg

1000 pounds = 1000/2.2 kg

=454.55kg

Weight limit of the elevator = 454.55kg.

Since Weight of the 2 refrigerator is less than

weight limit of the elevator, he can take both refrigerators on the elevator in one trip

How can undefinable terms be used to create precise mathematical definitions?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

This is done by stating descriptions of these terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Undefinable terms are terms with no formal definitions. Formal definitions are obtained when specific words are used to define a term. In mathematics, specifically, Geometry words like line, point, and plane have no definite definition, So descriptions are used to identify them.

For example, in describing a point, we note that a point has no dimensions, it is usually denoted with a capital letter, and it indicates a position. Also in a coordinate plane, it is denoted with descriptions such as  (u,v). Corresponding descriptions are given of other undefinable terms.

Sharon has a new beaded necklace. 72 out of the 80 beads on the necklace are blue. What
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

Sharon bought a necklace with 90% blue beads.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Sharon's necklace has 80 beads. We are also given that of those 80 beads, 72 of them are blue.

Therefore, we can set up a ratio of blue beads to total beads in order to find out the relationship.

\displaystyle \frac{72}{80}=\frac{36}{40}=\frac{18}{20}=\frac{9}{10}

Then, using the fraction we receive as a result, we can convert this to a decimal.

\displaystyle \frac{9}{10} = 0.9

After we complete this calculation, we can multiply our decimal by 100 in order to obtain the relationship in percentage form.

0.9 \times 100 = 90\%

Of the 80 beads, 90% were blue beads.
