Answer:
4.1
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is base length x height then divide all by 2,
so 12 x 10 /2
=60 ft²
4 pound of oats twice a day= 8 pounds of oats each day per horse. He has 4 horses so 4 horses times 8 pounds of oats is 32. You multiply 32 pounds times the three days he has to feed which is 96 pounds.
Check the picture below.
well, we want only the equation of the diametrical line, now, the diameter can touch the chord at any several angles, as well at a right-angle.
bearing in mind that <u>perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal</u> slopes, hmm let's find firstly the slope of AB, and the negative reciprocal of that will be the slope of the diameter, that is passing through the midpoint of AB.

so, it passes through the midpoint of AB,

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4/3 and runs through (3 , 5/2)

-3(6-10v-5v)
=-3(6-15v)
=-18+45v
-18+45v is the final answer.
