What is the area of parallelogram ABCD? ____ square units

Mathematics

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's a method of finding the area of any polygon knowing its vertices. I'm using this parallelogram as an example.

Make a table like this (each vertex with its x- and y-coordinates):

Pt    x       y

A     3      6

B     6      5

C     5      1

D     2      2

A     3      6

Now multiply each x-coordinate by the y-coordinate on the line below and write it on the right side. Bold type shows the first multiplication.

       x       y

A     3      6

B     6      5      15

C     5      1        6

D     2      2      10

A     3      6      12

Now multiply each y-coordinate by the x-coordinate on the line below and subtract from each produce you already have. Do each subtraction. Bold type shows the first multiplication.

       x       y

A     3     6

B     6      5      15 - 36 = -21

C     5      1        6 - 25 = -19

D     2      2      10 - 2 =     8

A     3      6      12 - 6 =     6

Add all the differences.

       x       y

A     3      6

B     6      5      15 - 36 = -21

C     5      1        6 - 25 = -19

D     2      2      10 - 2 =     8

A     3      6      12 - 6 =     6

                                   +____

                                       -26

The area of the polygon is the absolute value of half of the sum of the differences.

area = |-26/2| = |-13| = 13

A rental moving truck can haul a maximum of 7,500 pounds. Dejuan has boxes that weigh 40 pounds and boxes that weigh 75 pounds.
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

One hundred and fifty 40 pounds boxes and twenty 75 pounds boxes

Step-by-step explaination:

The maximum amount he can haul in one load is 7500 pounds

150 × 40 pounds boxes = 6000 pounds

20 × 75 pounds boxes = 1500 pounds

6000 pounds + 1500 pounds = 7500 pounds

Complete the statement using always, sometimes, or never. A rectangle is __________________ a rhombus.
Lesechka [4]
Hi!

A rectangle can sometimes be a rhombus if it has sides of all equal lengths. If a rectangle was a rhombus, it would also be a square. Furthermore, a square is always a rhombus.

Hope this helps! :)

5x/x^2-9 + 7/x+3<br> Simplify
rjkz [21]

5x ÷ x² - 9 + 7 ÷ x + 3

Write the division as a fraction:

\frac{5x}{x^{2} }\\ - 9 + \frac{7}{x} + 3

Simplify the expression:

\frac{5}{x} - 9 + \frac{7}{x} + 3

Calculate the sum:

\frac{5}{x} - 6 + \frac{7}{x}

Write all numerators above the common denominator:

\frac{5 - 6x + 7}{x}

Add the numbers and you get the final answer:

\frac{12-6x}{x}
