We know that the points at which the parabola intersects the x axis are
(-5,0) and (1,0)
So the extent between these two points would be the base of the triangle
lets find the length of the base using the distance formula
the base b=6
We will get the height of the triangle when we put x=0 in the equation
y=a(0+5)(0-1)
y=-5a
so height = -5a (we take +5a since it is the height)
We know that the area of the triangle =
× 6 × (5a) = 12
15a=12
a=
Answer:
Both are 72 do you need steps?
Answer:
$2,651
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find what 1.5% of $2,600 is.
Secondly, divide 2600 / 100 = 26
Finally, multiply 26 by 1.5 = 39.
Add 39 and 12 to 2600 = $2,651.00 total earnings for the month.
147/8 should be the answer. You had to change the mixed fraction into an improper fraction. Then switching 1/3 into 3/1 and then multiply.
