Find the area of each triangle and then add them together.

The formula for area of a triangle is 1/2 x base x height.

Area 1 = 1/2 x 24 x 56 = 672 square inches.

Area 2 = 1/2 x 14 x 33 = 231 square inches.

Total area = 672 + 231 = 903 square inches.

Answer:

903 in^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the larger sail = 1/2*24*56 = 672 in^2.

Area of the smaller sail = 1/2*14*33 = 231 in^2.

Minimum amount of material = 672 + 231 = 903 in^2.

A habitat of prairie dogs can support mmm dogs at most.
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is p = K × x × (m - p) , where K is the constant of proportionality and x is the current population of the habitat.

Step-by-step explanation:

A habitat of prairie dogs can support m dogs at most.

Let us consider the current population of the habitat be x.

Given the condition that the habitat's population, p,  grows proportionally to the product of the current population (x) and the difference between m and p.

Thus the proportional equation would look like:

p ∝ x × (m - p)

⇒ p = K × x × (m - p) , where K is the constant of proportionality.

Thus the equation describing the above mentioned relationship is given by the above equation.

4. Which of the following lines is perpendicular to y = -2X + 8?
Alenkinab [10]

For this case we have to by definition, if two lines are perpendicular then the product of its slopes is -1.

That is to say:

m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

We have the following equation:

y = -2x + 8

So:

m_ {1} = - 2

Thus:

m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {m_ {1}}\\m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {- 2}\\m = \frac {1}{2}

Thus, a line perpendicular to the given line must have slope m = \frac {1} {2}.

Option A:

x + 2y = 8\\2y = -x + 8\\y = - \frac {1} {2} x + 4

It is not perpendicular!

Option B:

x-2y = 6\\2y = x-6\\y = \frac {1} {2} x-3

If it is perpendicular!

Option C:

2x + y = 4\\y = -2x + 4

It is not perpendicular!

Option D:

2x-y = 1\\y = 2x-1

It is not perpendicular!

The correct option is option B

Option B

A rectangle has the length that is five times longer than it’s width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 12 inches, whats the
NemiM [27]
The width would be 1 inch.

Given: L = length = 5W; P = perimeter = 2(L+W) = 12 inches
Required: W = width; 
Formula: P=2(L+W) 
Solution:
              12 in = 2 (L + W)
              6 in = L + W
              6 in = 5W + W
              6 in = 6W
              1 in = W
Cross check:
              P = 2(L + W)
              12 in = 2(5 in + 1 in)
              12 in = 2(6 in)
              12 in = 12 in

grandymaker [24]
Simple,

first find what 19*7 and 3*5 is,

19*7=133
and
3*5=15

Factors in 133:
1,7,19,133

Factors in 15:
1,3,5,15

The GCF of 133 and 15 is 1. You can't simplify/reduce it anymore.
