Answer: Area of the figure = 24

Concept:

Here, we need to know how to find the area of a triangle.

Area (triangle) = (1/2) · b · h

b = base

h = height

Solve:

<u>Given coordinates on the graph </u>

A (-5, 5)

B (-5. -3)

C (1, -3)

<u>To find the value of the height, we need to know the value of a vertical line, meaning the [x] value of the points on the line is equal. As we can see from the given coordinates, point A and point B has the same [x] value. The value of the height equals the difference between A and B's [y] value</u>

A (-5, 5)

B (-5, -3)

5 - (-3) = 5 + 3 = 8

<u>To find the value of the base, we need to know the value of a horizontal line, meaning the [y] value of the points on the line is equal. As we can see from the given coordinates, point B and point C has the same [y] value. The value of the base equals the difference between B and C's [x] value</u>

B (-5, -3)

C (1, -3)

1 - (-5) = 1 + 5 = 6

<u>Given expression</u>

A = (1/2) · b · h

<u>Substitute values into the expression</u>

A = (1/2) · (6) · (8)

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

A = (1/2) · (48)

\boxed{A =24}

Hope this helps!! :)

Determine if the rates $168 rasied for washing 24 cars and $280 rasied for washing 40 cars are equivalent
Mariana [72]

We are given : $168 raised for washing 24 cars and $280 raised for washing 40 cars.

We know the rate formula.

Rate = Total amount ÷ Total numbers.

Let us find value of each rate for  the given problem.

Rate 1: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $168 ÷ 24 = $7.

Rate 2: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $280 ÷ 40 = $7.

We can clearly see that Rate 1 is equal to Rate 2, that is $7.

So, we can say rates are equivalent.
