Answer:
y = -1/2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
It can work to start with the 2-point form of the equation for a line.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (1 -5)/(4 -(-4))(x -(-4)) +5 . . . . . fill in point values
y = -4/8(x +4) +5 . . . . . . . . simplify a bit
y = -1/2x -2 +5 . . . . . .eliminate parentheses
y = -1/2x +3 . . . . collect terms
I think 12 might be the second one, I'm not sure though!
For the first one to find the total area you have to first find the area of the triangle 1/2(10x12.5)=62.5 and then the square (13.4x12.5)=167.5 which is 10468.75 totaled
