Answer:
It would be a negative or positive depending on the situation.
Step-by-step explanation:
A negative minus a negative would result in either a positive or negative. For example, -8 - (-9) would be 1 while -8 - (-7) would be -1. If the negative number your subtracting is greater than the number you're subtracting from then it will be positive, vice versa.
The vase of the triangle would be x because it is unknown and the height would be x+2 because it is 2 more units than the base the formula for the area of a triangle is (base)(height)% 2 =area so (x)(x+2)%2=12 so then you have 1/2x^2+x=12 at this point I would move the 12 to the other side by subtracting to get 1/2x^2+x-12=0 then I would multiply it all by 2 to get x^2 + 2x-24 from there I would factor to get (x+6)(x-4) and your answers would be x= -6 and 4 and because 6 is negative it would not work because distances are always positive so the base would equal 4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
m = 
y - 
= m( x - 
)
y = mx + b
~~~~~~~~~~~
(4, 5)
( - 6, 15)
m = (15 - 5) / ( - 6 - 4 ) = - 1
y - 5 = ( - 1)( x - 4 )
y =<em> (- 1) </em>x + <em>9</em>
You got this!!!! just don’t rush, if you really don’t know the answer, just chose letter C hahah :)
