Refer to the attached image. Since one vertex is the origin and the other two lay on the coordinate axes, the triangle is a right triangle. This means that, if we consider AB to the be base, AC is his height, and vice versa.
Anyway, it means that the area is given by

Since AB is a horizontal segment and AC is a vertical segment, their length is given by the absolute difference of the non-constant coordinate: points A and B share the same x coordinate, so we subtract the y coordinates:

The opposite goes for AC: points A and C share the same y coordinate, so we subtract the x coordinates:

So, the area is

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Reading rate is y pages per x minutes and proportional relationship formula is:</u>
<u>The coefficient is:</u>
<u>Let's verify if the given numbers fit into the same relationship:</u>
- 12/18 = 2/3
- 8/12 = 2/3
- 20/30 = 2/3
We confirm all same and it means k = 2/3
<u>Required equation is:</u>
This represents that Michael reads 2 pages per 3 minutes and for x minutes he reads 2/3x pages
I believe the answer should be -4+x= -4x.
I hope this helps :)
Answer:
r = - 13 / 15 inches/week
Step-by-step explanation:
The numerator is 13
and the denominator is 15, then we have
r = - 13 / 15 inches/week
r < 0 since the water level of the lake fell
F(2)= 4(16) - 6(4) + 8(2) - 15
F(2)= 64 -24 + 16 - 15
F(2)= 41
