Answer:

56 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us start by the formula of the area of a triangle, $\frac{b*h}{2}=A$ . A represents the area of the triangle, b represents the base of the triangle, and h represents the height of the triangle.

In this case, we can pretty clearly tell that h represents the height of the triangle and x represents the base of the triangle. We are also given that x=14 units and h = 8 units. Lets plug our values into the equation!

$A=\frac{h*x}{2} \\A=\frac{14*8}{2} \\A=\frac{112}{2} \\A=56$

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 56 units.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions :)

Graph the equation on the coordinate plane.y=2x-1

Yakvenalex [24]

This equation is written in slope intercept form

Remember that the slope intercept formula is:

y = mx + b

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

In this case:

slope (m) is 2

y-intercept (b) is (0, - 1)

To plot this on a coordinate plane plot the y-intercept (0, -1).

To graph the rest of the line you can use what you know about the slope. Rise up two units and over to the right one unit from the y-intercept. You should arrive at the point (1, 1)

Then, again from the y-intercept, go down two units and to the left one unit. You should arrive at the point (-1, -3)

Now draw a straight line through the y-intercept and the other two points you just found

The image of the graph is shown below

Hope this helped!
