Answer:

(Base x height) x 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We do this because a triangle is emulating a rectangle with Base x Height. However, a triangle's shape is less conventional than a standard square or rectangle, thus the division by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Principal = $5600

A rectangles length is 1.5 times its width. The perimeter of the rectangle is four more than 3 times the length. What are the di
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

  8 by 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is 1.5w. The perimeter is 4 more than 3 times this, so is (3(1.5w) +4) = 4.5w+4

The perimeter is given by the formula ...

  P = 2(length + width)

Filling in the given values for the variables, we have ...

  4.5w +4 = 2(w +1.5w)

  4 = 0.5w . . . . . . subtract 4.5w and collect terms

  8 = w . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

  length = 1.5×8 = 12

The rectangle is 8 units wide and 12 units long. The perimeter is 40 units.

Determine the answer to 3 + (-5) and explain the steps using a number line
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

3 - 5 = -2

Place the dot on -2 on the number line that is on your problem as the answer. To show the steps on the number line, use your jumps to go back. For example, your starting point will be on 3, and then use your jumps to go back by 5; that means you go into the negatives. For this case, it is -2.

A segment with endpoints A (2, 1) and C (4, 7) is partitioned by a point B such that AB and BC form a 3:2 ratio. Find B.
sdas [7]

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{internal division of a line segment} \\\\\\ A(2,1)\qquad C(4,7)\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{ratio from A to C}}{3:2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{A\underline{B}}{\underline{B} C} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies \cfrac{A}{C} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies 2A=3C\implies 2(2,1)=3(4,7)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ B=\left(\frac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \frac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)\\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf B=\left(\cfrac{(2\cdot 2)+(3\cdot 4)}{3+2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(2\cdot 1)+(3\cdot 7)}{3+2}\right)\implies B=\left( \cfrac{4+12}{5}~,~\cfrac{2+21}{5} \right) \\\\\\ B=\left(\cfrac{16}{5}~~,~~\cfrac{23}{5} \right)\implies B=\left( 3\frac{1}{5}~~,~~4\frac{3}{5} \right)
