tween coordinates begin ordered pair 1 comma 1 end ordered pair begin ordered pair 1 comma 4 end ordered pair and coordinates begin ordered pair 5 comma 1 end ordered pair
1 answer:
Answer:
6 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
The coordinates (1,1) (1,4) (5,1) form a right triangle as shown in the graph below
The base is is (1,1) and (5,1) so the length is 5-1 or 4 units
The height is (1,1) and (1,4) so the height is 4-1 or 3 units
Area of a triangle is given by
A = 1/2 bh
= 1/2 (4*3)
= 1/2 *12
= 6 units^2

Given:
A sum of money is divided between A,B and C in the ratio 9:8:7.
Total sum is 480.
To find:
The part of money A get.
Solution:
Let A, B and C get 9x, 8x and 7x respectively.
Total sum is 480.
Divide both sides by 24.
Now,
Therefore, amount received by A is 180.
