P(7,6), Q(1,6), R(4,2)
We have PQ parallel to the x axis. We'll call that the base,
b = 7 - 1 = 6
The altitude is then the y difference h = 6 - 2 = 4
The area is 
Answer: 12 square units
In general we can use the shoelace formula for the area of any polygon given coordinates. We write the points like this:
(7,6), (1,6), (4,2)
(1,6), (4,2), (7,6)
The area is then half the absolute value of the sum of the cross products:
Answer:
w = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
(26+4)=30, and 30/6=5, therefore, w = 5.
Answer:
Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead
Step-by-step explanation:
Mariana workings:
-3(2x - 4) = -12
-6x - 12 = -12
Her error was multiplying -3 and -4 which gives +12 but she wrote -12 instead
-6x = 0
x=0
Correct workings:
-3(2x - 4) = -12
-6x + 12 = - 12
-6x = -12 - 12
-6x = -24
x = -24/-6
x = 4
Answer:
1.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving our equation
r = 10.2 / ( 425 × 2 ) = 0.012
r = 0.012
converting r decimal to a percentage
R = 0.012 * 100 = 1.2%/year
The interest rate required to
accumulate simple interest of $ 10.20
from a principal of $ 425.00
over 2 years is 1.2% per year.
