In geometry, Heron's formula (sometimes called Hero's formula), named after Hero of Alexandria, gives the area of a triangle by

requiring no arbitrary choice of side as base or vertex as origin, contrary to other formulae for the area of a triangle, such as half the base times the height. Use Heron's Formula to find the area, in square yards, of ΔABC.

Answer:

D. 6.495 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

s = \frac{a+b+c}{2}        Substitute

s = \frac{7+3+5 }{2}        Add

s = 15/2          Divide

s = 7.5

Now use the equation for area

A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}       Substitute

A=\sqrt{7.5(7.5 - 7)(7.5-3)(7.5-5)   Subtract in the parentheses

A=\sqrt{7.5(0.5)(4.5)(2.5)}                      Multiply

A=\sqrt{42.1875}                                     Take the square root

A = 6.495 ft²

sveta [45]
\dfrac{\$18.45}{n \text { gallon}}  =  \dfrac{\$3.60}{7.5 \text { gallon}}

Cross multiply
n \times \  3.60 = 7.5 \times \  18.45

Combine like terms
3.60n = 138.375

Find n
n = 138.375\div 360

Write the function for the graph
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The function for the given graph is;

f(x)=2\cdot 4^x

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function is in the form of y =ab^x ......[1] where a is the initial value and b≠ 0 , b >1 .

Given two points as shown in figure i.e,

let A = (0, 2) and B = (1,8)

Substitute these points in equation [1] we have;

For A = (0,2)

2 = ab^0 = a

⇒ a = 2

and

for B = (1, 8)

8 = ab^1

or

ab = 8

Substitute the value of a=2 in above equation to solve for b;

2b = 8

divide both sides by 2 we get;

b = 4

Then, the function for the graph is, y=f(x)=2\cdot 4^x
