RS => y - 5 = (8 - 5)/(1 - (-1)) (x - (-1))
y - 5 = 3/2 (x + 1) => slope = 3/2
ST => y - 8 = (-2 - 8)/(7 - 1) (x - 1)
y - 8 = -10/6 (x - 1) = -5/3 (x - 1) => slope = -5/3
TU => y - (-2) = (0 - (-2))/(2 - 7) (x - 7)
y + 2 = 2/5(x - 7) => slope = 2/5
UR => y = 5/(-1 - 2) (x - 2)
y = -5/3 (x - 2) => slope = -5/3
The median is the line joining the midpoints of the non-parallel sides.
Midpoint of RS = ((-1 + 1)/2, (5 + 8)/2) = (0, 13/2)
Midpoint of TU = ((7 + 2)/2, -2/2) = (9/2, -1)
Equation of the line joining (0, 13/2) and (9/2, -1) is given by y - 13/2 = (-1 - 13/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = (-15/2)/(9/2) x
y - 13/2 = -15/9x
18y - 117 = -30x
30x + 18y = 117
You can’t really know the y value unless you’re told that they’re both directly proportional. if so, then check out the pic
Answer: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
138/x = 207/60
8280 = 207x
divide by 207
40 = x
Assuming she set up the problem vertically, she began subtracting from the left, instead if the right.
Answer:
A. 288.62
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of two triangles = 15.3 * 10.4 = 159.12
Area rectangle = hypotenuse triangle * 7
hypotenuse = √108.16 + 234.09
Hypotenuse = 18.5
Area rectangle = 18.5 * 7 = 129.5
129.5 + 159.12 = 288.62
Answer = A. 288.62
