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.

A scientist is growing bacteria in a lab for study. One particular type of bacteria grows at a rate of y=2t^2+3t+500. A differen
Leya [2.2K]

ANSWER

Approximately after 15 minutes.

EXPLANATION

The growth rate of the first bacteria is

y = 2 {t}^{2}   + 3t + 500

The growth rate of the first bacteria :

y = 3 {t}^{2}  + t + 300

To find the time that, there will be an equal number of bacteria, we equate the two equation;

3 {t}^{2}  + t + 300 = 2 {t}^{2}   + 3t + 500

3 {t}^{2}  - 2 {t}^{2}   + t  - 3t +  300 - 500 =00

{t}^{2}  - 2t  - 200= 0

We solve for t to get,

t = 15.177

Or

t =  - 13.177

We discard the negative value.

This implies that,

t \approx15
