What is the area of the triangle ?

Mathematics

from the question, (-2,2) and (1,2) have the same y value so you can use that as your base and easily find the perpendicular height using the y axis since it's parallel to the x axis.

the third point, (0,-6), to the base is your height

use the sum of the positive of the y values to find your height (because height can't be negative): 6+2 = 8

area of a triangle = 1/2 bh = 1/2 x 3 x 8 = 12

Note: 1/2 bh only works because (-2,2) and (1,2) form a line parallel to the x axis

What is the value of x in the equation 3x-1/9=18 when y equals 27
anygoal [31]

Answer: 163/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x + -1/9 = 18

Step 2: Add 1/9 to both sides.

3x + -1/9 + 1/9 + = 18 + 1/9

3x = 163/9

Step 3: Divide both sides by 3.

3x/3 = 163/9 over 3

x = 163/27
