Yes it is a right triangle
Formula for the area of the triangle:
1/2 bh
b = base
h = height
#6.
Area = 36 in²
Base = 18 in
36 = 1/2(18)h
36 = 9h
36 ÷ 9 = h
4 = h
height = 4 in
#7.
Area = 2 ft²
Height = 1 ft
2 = 1/2 b (1)
2 = 1/2 b
2 ÷ 1/2 = b
4 = b
Base = 4 ft
#8.
Area = 42 in²
Base = 12 in
42 = 1/2 (12) h
42 = 6h
42 ÷ 6 = h
7 = h
Height = 7 in
Notice that the answers have no exponents (²). That is because they are used only on the area of shapes as units.
Since you find the area by multiplying things together, for example x · x = x², the exponent is there.
You do not need to worry about this being in the calculation. This will just be in units such as:
cm²
ft²
in²
m²
Just remember to use these exponents in the units for the areas.
Y = <span>b^x
when x = 1
y = b^1
y = b
Therefore, the value of b is the same as the value of y when x =1
From the graph,
When x = 1, y = 0.5
Therefore, b = 0.5
To confirm this
From the graph,
When x = -1, y = 2
Since </span>y = b^x<span>
2 = </span>b^-1
2 = 1/b
2b = 1
b = 0.5
When x = -2, y = 4
Since y = b^x
4 = b^-2
4 = 1/(b^2)
b^2 = 1/4
b = √(1/4)
b = 1/2
b = 0.5
Therefore, it is conformed that b = 0.5
Answer:
The total value of the discount was $10.80.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are finding the value of the discount, we just need to find 18% of 60.
We can convert 18% into a decimal.
18%=0.18
Multiply.
0.18*60=10.8
The total value of the discount was $10.80.
When you divide with fractions you have to multiply the "dividend" with the reciprocal of the "divisor".
2 1/2 in improper fraction is 5/2
5 x 2/5 = 10/5 = 2
