Answer:

Part A) The area of the figure is 24\ units^{2}

Part B) The perimeter of the figure is 20\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the figure

we know that

The area of the figure is equal to the area of triangle ABD plus the area of triangle BCD

The area of triangle is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

<u>Area of triangle ABD</u>

Observing the graph

b=BD=(-2+8)=6\ units

h=(9-5)=4\ units

substitute

A=\frac{1}{2}(6)(4)=12\ units^{2}

<u>Area of triangle BCD</u>

Observing the graph

b=BD=(-2+8)=6\ units

h=(5-1)=4\ units

substitute

A=\frac{1}{2}(6)(4)=12\ units^{2}

The area of the figure is

12\ units^{2}+12\ units^{2}=24\ units^{2}

step 2

Find the perimeter of the figure

we know that

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

P=AB+BC+CD+AD

we have

A(-5,1),B(-8,5),C(-5,9),D(-2,5)

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

Find the distance AB

d=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-8+5)^{2}}=5\ units

Find the distance BC

d=\sqrt{(9-5)^{2}+(-5+8)^{2}}=5\ units

Find the distance CD

d=\sqrt{(5-9)^{2}+(-2+5)^{2}}=5\ units

Find the distance AD

d=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-2+5)^{2}}=5\ units

substitute the values

P=5+5+5+5=20\ units

Math word problem. What's the equation I use?
UkoKoshka [18]
You would have to find the proportionality of the two.  If his shadow is 3 feet long, and the tree's shadow is 9 that means it is proportioned by 3. So the height of the tree would be 15.

How much does 2.5 L of oil cost if 2,000 mL costs $5.00?<br> Show work
kkurt [141]

Answer:

$6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

2000ml = 2 litres

2.5L - 2L = 500ml

So now we know that without the 500ml, it is 5 dollars.

Find out how much 500 ml cost.

2000ml = 5.00

1ml = 5.00 ÷ 2000 = 0.0025

500ml = 0.0025 x 500 = 1.25

2L + 500 ml = 2.5L (which 2.5L costs 6.25)
