In the figure, we can consider that the base is the side that mesures 12 in and that the height is the side that measures 15 in, since that sides are perpendicular. So, we just need to use the given formula:

Hence, the area of the triangle is 90 in² (B).

Answer: y = (-3/2)x+3</h3>
In decimal form, this is y = -1.5x+3
=========================================
Explanation:
Start at (0,3). Move three units down and two units to the right to get to (2,0)
slope = rise/run
slope = -3/2
rise = -3 = go 3 units down
run = 2 = go 2 units to the right
--------------------------
We could use the two points (0,3) and (2,0) in the slope formula below
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (0-3)/(2-0)
m = -3/2
So this is another way to see the slope is -3/2
--------------------------
The y intercept is where the graph crosses the vertical y axis. In this case, it's at 3. So b = 3
Using m = -3/2 and b = 3, we go from y = mx+b to y = (-3/2)x+3 which is equivalent to y = -1.5x+3
Answer:
$48.00
Step-by-step explanation:
$3.00 / 6.5 oz = [unknown $] / 104 oz
unknown $ = 104 oz * $3.00 / 6.5 oz
unknown $ = 16 * $3.00 ((oz/oz cancels out))
unknown $ = $48.00
Answers:
a = -6/37
b = -1/37
============================================================
Explanation:
Let's start things off by computing the derivatives we'll need

Apply substitution to get

I've factored things in such a way that we have something in the form Msin(x) + Ncos(x), where M and N are coefficients based on the constants a,b.
The right hand side is simply sin(x). So we want that cos(x) term to go away. To do so, we need the coefficient (a-6b) in front of that cosine to be zero
a-6b = 0
a = 6b
At the same time, we want the (-6a-b)sin(x) term to have its coefficient be 1. That way we simplify the left hand side to sin(x)
-6a -b = 1
-6(6b) - b = 1 .... plug in a = 6b
-36b - b = 1
-37b = 1
b = -1/37
Use this to find 'a'
a = 6b
a = 6(-1/37)
a = -6/37
