Answer:
7 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways the area of triangle EBD can be found.
- find the lengths EB, BD, DE and use Heron's formula (messy due to roots of roots being involved).
- define point G at the lower left corner and subtract the areas of ∆DEG and BCD from trapezoid BCGE.
- figure the area from the coordinates of the vertices.
- use Pick's theorem and count the dots.
We choose the latter.

Pick's theorem says the area of a polygon can be found as ...
A = i + b/2 -1
where i is the number of grid intersection points interior to the polygon, b is the number of grid points intersected by the border.
The attached figure shows the lines EB, BD, and DE intersect one point in addition to the vertices. So, b=4. A count of the red dots reveals 6 interior points (i=6). So, the area is ...
A = 6 + (4/2) -1 = 7
The area of ∆EBD is 7 square units.
Answer B
Explanation: Y=mx+b
M=slope and b=yintercept
A) the probability it is brown would be 50%; the probability it is yellow or blue would be 35%; the probability it is not green is 95%; the probability it is striped is 0%.
B) the probability of all brown would be 12.5%; the probability that the third one is the first red one drawn is 8.1%; the probability that none are yellow is 61.4%; the probability that at least one is green is 14.3%.
Explanation:
A) The probability that it is brown is the percentage of brown we have. Brown is not listed, so we subtract what we are given from 100%:
100-(15+10+20+5) = 100-(50) = 50%. The probability that one drawn is yellow or blue would be the two percentages added together: 15+20 = 35%. The probability that it is not green would be the percentage of green subtracted from 100: 100-5=95%. Since there are no striped candies listed, the probability is 0%.
B) Since we have an infinite supply of candy, we will treat these as independent events. All 3 being brown is found by taking the probability that one is brown and multiplying it 3 times:
0.5*0.5*0.5 = 0.125 = 12.5%.
To find the probability that the first one that is red is the third one drawn, we take the probability that it is NOT red, 100-10 = 90% = 0.9, for the first two, and the probability that it IS red, 10% = 0.1, for the last:
0.9*0.9*0.1 = 0.081 = 8.1%.
The probability that none are yellow is found by raising the probability that the first one is not yellow, 100-15=85%=0.85, to the third power:
0.85^3 = 0.614 = 61.4%.
The probability that at least one is green is computed by subtracting 1-(probability of no green). We first find the probability that all three are NOT green:
0.95^3 = 0.857375
1-0.857375 = 0.143 = 14.3%.
