Charlie is re-landscaping his back yard and uses a coordinate plane to map the yard out. There is a pine tree located at (-5, 5)

; the edge of a shed is located at (-5, 1) and the edge of a sandbox is located at (2, 5). He plans to cover the triangular area formed by these three points with gravel. What area of the yard will be covered in gravel? Note: On the coordinate plane, each gridline represents 2 feet.

First I'd suggest plotting the points on a graph so that you can visualize the problem. What you're trying to find is the area of the triangle that the three points given will form. The area of a triangle is \frac{1}{2} bh where b is the size of the base of the triangle and h is the height of the triangle. From graphing the three points and connecting them, you can see that the base of the right triangle formed is 4 units/gridlines and the height of the right triangle is 7 units/gridlines. SInce the problem specifies that each gridline is 2 feet, that means that the base 4 x 2 = 8 feet, and the height is 7 x 2 = 14 feet. Now you just plug these values into the equation for the area of a triangle to get \frac{1}{2} (8)(14)=56 feet squared as the area that will be covered in gravel.

Two ships leave the same port at the same time. Two hours later ship A has traveled 12 miles and ship B has traveled 8 miles.
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, you can construct a triangle, just like the one in the figure.

We will use the <em>Cosine Rule</em> which is:

c² = b² + a² - 2 b c cos(θ)

where

  • c = 16 miles
  • b = 8 miles
  • a = 12 miles

Therefore,

2 b c cos(θ) = b² + a² - c²

cos(θ) = (b² + a² - c²) / 2 b c

θ = cos⁻¹( (b² + a² - c²) / (2 b c) )

θ = cos⁻¹( (8² + 12² - 16²) / 2(8)(16) )

<em>θ = 100.8°</em>

<em></em>

Therefore, the angle between their paths is <em>100.8°</em>

PLEASE HELP ME, I HAVE NO IDEA! Find an equation for the line below.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

  y -2 = -2/3(x +4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several different forms of the equation for a line. Each is useful in its own way. Here, the line crosses the y-axis at a point between integer values, so using that intercept point could be problematical. That suggests the "point-slope" form of the equation for a line would be a better choice.

That form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

__

The two marked points are (-4, 2) and (5, -4). All we need is the slope.

The slope is given by the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . . . where the given points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

  m = (-4 -2)/(5 -(-4)) = -6/9 = -2/3

Using the first point, the equation for the line can now be written as ...

  y -2 = -2/3(x -(-4))

  y -2 = -2/3(x +4)

Jan is 2/3 of Karyn's age. Jan's age 8 years ago is 2/5 of Katyn's age 4 yeats from now. Jan is how many younger than Karyn?
Elden [556K]

Answer:

12 years younger.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Jan's age be J and Karyn's age be K.

J= \frac{2}{3}  K

Jan's age 8 years ago is 2/5 of Karyn's age 4 yeaRs from now.

J-8 = \frac{2}{5} (K+4)

=> (\frac{2}{3} - \frac{2}{5} ) K = \frac{8}{5} + 8

=> 4K = 48 X 3

=> K= 36.

=> J= 24.

So Jan is 12 years younger.

Taking into account the definition of percentage, the correct option is: 21 percent of her net pay is left for savings.

First of all, the percentage represents a given quantity that establishes relationships between two quantities, using the number 100 as a reference.

That is, the percentage indicates what part of a total represents a quantity.

To obtain the percentage, the division must be made between the portion of the total and the total amount that belongs to the set, whose result is multiplied by 100.

In this case, if Lillie's current monthly net pay and her monthly expenses are $ 387.10, and I assume that the rest of the money is saved by Lillie, then the amount of money saved is $ 490 - $ 387.10 = $ 102.9.

Then:

  • portion of the total= amount of money saved= $102.9
  • total amount= Lillie's current monthly net pay= $490

So, the percentage is calculated as:

percentage= (102.9÷490) ×100

percentage= 0.21×100

percentage= 21%

The correct option is: 21 percent of her net pay is left for savings.
