Answer:
- the shape is a trapezoid
- use the area formula
- 48783 mm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The top and bottom edges are parallel, and the shape has 4 sides. That means it is a trapezoid. The area can be found using the formula for the area of a trapezoid:
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
A = 1/2(85 mm + 218 mm)(322 mm) = 1/2(303)(322) mm² = 48783 mm²
To solve a problem, we often plug in the given information into algebraic expression and equations.

now that we know what are the x-values, what are the y-values? well, we can just use the 2nd equation, since we know that y = x - 28, then
![\bf y = x - 28\implies \stackrel{\textit{when x = 16}}{y = 16 - 28}\implies y = -12 \\\\\\ y = x - 28\implies \stackrel{\textit{when x = 12}}{y = 12 - 28}\implies y = -16 \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill (\stackrel{x}{16}~~,~~\stackrel{y}{-12})\qquad,\qquad (\stackrel{x}{12}~~,~~\stackrel{y}{-16})~\hfill](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20y%20%3D%20x%20-%2028%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bwhen%20x%20%3D%2016%7D%7D%7By%20%3D%2016%20-%2028%7D%5Cimplies%20y%20%3D%20-12%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%20y%20%3D%20x%20-%2028%5Cimplies%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Ctextit%7Bwhen%20x%20%3D%2012%7D%7D%7By%20%3D%2012%20-%2028%7D%5Cimplies%20y%20%3D%20-16%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20%5Crule%7B34em%7D%7B0.25pt%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~%5Chfill%20%28%5Cstackrel%7Bx%7D%7B16%7D~~%2C~~%5Cstackrel%7By%7D%7B-12%7D%29%5Cqquad%2C%5Cqquad%20%28%5Cstackrel%7Bx%7D%7B12%7D~~%2C~~%5Cstackrel%7By%7D%7B-16%7D%29~%5Chfill)
Step 3: the student missed +4 in the equation while adding both equation
Answer:
(0, 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
J(-4, 11)
K(8, -1)
JP:JK = 1/3
Required:
Coordinates of P
SOLUTION:
Use the formula,
to find the coordinates of point P, that partition the segment JK into the ratio 1/3.
Let,



Thus, plug in the values as follows:





The coordinates of point P, are (0, 7)
