For this case we have by definition, that the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis
We need two points through which the line passes to find the slope:
We found the slope:
So, the equation is of the form:
We substitute a point to find "b":
Finally, the equation is:
Answer:
Option D
well, first off, let's notice that we have a trapezoid with a rectangle inside it, so the rectangle is really "using up" area that the trapezoid already has.
now, if we just get the area of the trapezoid, and then the area of the rectangle alone, and then subtract that area of the rectangle, the rectangle will in effect be making a hole inside the trapezoid's area, and what's leftover, is the shaded section, that part the hole is not touching.
