Use the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line
y - y1 = m(x - x1) here m = (2/5), x1 = 2 and y1 = -1.
y -(-1) = (2/5)(x - 2)
y + 1 = (2/5) (x - 2)
multiplying through by 5:-
5y + 5 = 2x - 4
5y = 2x - 9
The equation for area of a triangle is given below.
Area of Triangle = 0.5*Base*Height
Since we are given that the base is 8 yards and height is 3 yards...
Area of Triangle = 0.5 * 8 yards * 3 yards = 12 yards^2
Factor dem groups
find greatest common factor
24=2*2*2*3
40=2*2*2*5
common is 2*2*2=8
answer is 8 groups
