Answer:
16 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
When you plot the points, you see they define a trapezoid with bases of lengths 2 and 6, and a height of 4. The area formula is ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)(2 +6)(4) = 16
The area of the trapezoid is 16 square units.
Answer:
Option (3)
Step-by-step explanation:
By applying cosine rule in the triangle ABC,
BC² = AC² + AB² - 2(AC)(AB)cosA
5² = 3² + 7²- 2(3)(7)cosA
25 = 9 + 49 - 42cos(A)
25 = 58 - 42cos(A)
cos(A) =
A =
A = 38.21°
A ≈ 38°
Option (3) will be the correct option.
Answer:
• x = -4, x = 0, x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x is a factor of all terms, so x=0 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 1 and 5.)
The sum of coefficients is 0, so x=1 is a zero. (Eliminates choices 3 and 4.)
Reversing the sign of the odd-degree terms gives signs of -++, so there is one sign change, hence one negative real root (by Descartes' rule of signs). This confirms choice 2 as the answer.
