Answer:
9/3=3
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula is y2(7) minus y1(-2)
divided by x2(-4) minus x1(-7)
You just multiply the top and bottom numbers like it was two normal multiplication problems. Ex. 3/4x1/4=3/16 (3x1,4x4) But its different because you have to put them together to make a fraction (3/16).
Answer:
<u>58 units</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
I decided that one side is 37 units and another is 2 units, since that would make the area 37 units. (you can also use 74 units and 1 unit)
Then I multiplied 37 by 5/4, which equals a new length of 46.25 units, and I also multiplied 2 by 5/4, which equals a new length of 2.5 units.
Finally, I solve for the area of the triangle:
1/2(46.25 x 2.5) ≈ <u>58 units</u> (rounded to the nearest whole number)
