We don't need to graph the line. All we have to do is use our slope formula.
Answer is provided in the image attached.
Answer:
The area of ∆DEF = 4.5in²
Step-by-step explanation:
From the above diagram,
∆BAC ~∆DEF
It is important to note that if two triangles are similar, the ratio of their areas is equal or equivalent to the ratio of the areas of their sides
This means for the above question, that
We have the bigger triangle = ∆BAC has a side of 4 in and Area = 8 in²
The small triangle has a side of 3in
Finding the scale factor k = ratio of the sides of both Triangles
k = 4/3
k² = (4/3)²
k² = 16/9
Hence,
Area of ∆BAC/ Area of ∆DEF = 16/9
8in²/Area of ∆DEF = 16/9
We cross Multiply
8 in² × 9 = Area of ∆DEF × 16
Divide both sides by 16
Area of ∆DEF = 72/16
= 4.5in²
Therefore, the Area of ∆DEF rounded to the nearest tenth = 4.5in²
Do Pythagorean Theorem because a rectangle divided in diagonals form right triangles
A^2+b^2=C^2
Plug in the correct numbers and solve
A and B can be switched around but C is always the longest diagonal side which is called the hypotenuse not the Adjacent sides that form a right angle
So with correct solving you should get 5.
The cost of one drink is $2.50 and cost of one popcorn is $3.75
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Suppose, the cost of one drink is
dollar and cost of one popcorn is
dollar.
Given that, total cost for 2 drinks and 2 popcorns is $12.50 and total cost for 6 drinks and 5 popcorns is $33.75
So, the system of equations will be......

Multiplying equation (1) by -3 , we will get.....

Now, adding equation (2) and equation (3) , we will get ............

Plugging this
into equation (1) ......

So, the cost of one drink is $2.50 and cost of one popcorn is $3.75
The answer for number one is -3.938.
