Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
so old triangle we have 1/2 x b x h = 48
new triangle has base 3 times as long and height is half as long
so we would get:
1/2 x (3B) x (1/2H) = area
rewrite as 1/2 x 3/2 x b x H = area
divide by original are os 1/2 x b x h and you end up with 3/2
so new area = 3/2 x old area
new area = 3/2 * 48 = 72 square inches
Answer:
the last table
Step-by-step explanation:
Because there is a zero in the expression 12.34 * 0 * 74.91 the product is 0.
4(-2)-3 = -8-3 = -11
Answer: -11
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The easiest way to do this is to Substitute for y in the top equation.
2x + 4y = 18 Divide by 2
2x/2 + 4y/2 = 18/2
x + 2y = 9
Substitute -3x + 2 in for y in the equation above
x + 2(-3x + 2) = 9
x - 6x + 4 = 9
Combine like terms on the left
-5x + 4 = 9
Subtract 4 from both sides.
-5x + 4-4 = 9- 4
-5x = 5
Divide by -5
-5x/-5 = 5/-5
x = - 1
That makes A and C incorrect.
y = -3x + 2
y = -3(-1) + 2
y = 3 + 2
y = 5
The correct answer should be (-1,5) which is B
