Answer:

y=1/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(1-(-2))/(8-(-4))

m=(1+2)/(8+4)

m=3/12

m=1/4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/4(x-(-4))

y+2=1/4(x+4)

y=1/4x+4/4-2

y=1/4x+1-2

y=1/4x-1

andrezito [222]

The correct answer is d) 4x² - 4x + 1.

The area of a square is found by squaring the side length:

(2x-1)² = (2x-1)(2x-1) = 2x*2x - 2x*1 - 2x*1 - 1(-1) = 4x² - 2x - 2x + 1 = 4x²-4x+1

The area of a piece of land that is in the shape of a triangle is 1/12 square mile. One dimension of this piec of land is 4/21.

Arisa [49]

Answer:

D2=21/24 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Her it is not specified if it is base or height, it only talks about dimensions, so let's work with dimensions

A=1/12 $mile^{2}$

D1=4/21mile, D2=?

Area of a triangle $A=\frac{b.h}{2}$

A=((D1*D2)/2) → 2A=D1*D2 → D2=2A/D1 so D2=(2*1/12)/(4/21) =(1/6)/(4/21) = (1*21)/(6*4)=21/24 mile
