Answer:
every U.S dollar is worth 16 Mexican pesos
Answer: Choice C) 10.5
The distance from A to C is 7 units (count out the spaces between the two points, or subtract y coordinates 4-(-3) = 4+3 = 7)
Let AC = 7 be the base of the triangle. You might want to rotate the image so that AC is laying horizontally rather than being vertical.
Now move to point P. Walk 3 spaces to the right until you land on segment AC. This shows that the height of the triangle is 3 when the base is AC = 7.
base = 7, height = 3
area of triangle = (1/2)*base*height
area of triangle = 0.5*7*3
area of triangle = 10.5 square units
x-3y= 1
The equation needs to be rewritten in proper Slope intercept form ( y = mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
x-3y = 1
Subtract x from each side:
-3y = 1-x
Divide both sides by -3:
y = 1/-3 - x/-3
Simplify:
y = 1/3x - 1/3
The slope is 1/3
