The answer is vertex is (5/2, 27/2).
Find x= -b/2a where a=-2, b=10 then plug x value back into function to solve for y value of vertex (x,y).
Answer:
55.5 u^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the quadrilateral into 2 triangles. There are two ways to do this, but I'm only doing one of them.
On the 5-11 triangle, use the two of the lengths and plug them into the triangle area formula. (L x W)/2 = A
5-11 triangle area: 27.5
Do the same for the 7-8 triangle. Plug it into the same formula.
7-8 triangle area: 28
Add the two areas. 27.5 + 28 = 55.5
What????
You just add 1 +3 =4
