Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a triangle where you know the x and y coordinates of the three vertices, you'll need to use the coordinate geometry formula: area = the absolute value of Ax(By - Cy) + Bx(Cy - Ay) + Cx(Ay - By) divided by 2. Ax and Ay are the x and y coordinates for the vertex of A. The same applies for the x and y notations of the B and C vertices.

Fill in the numbers for each corresponding letter combination within the formula.

Fill in your formula like this: 0(8-10) + 3(0-0) + 9(0-8).

Subtract the numbers within the parentheses.

0 from 8 = 8, 0 from 0 = 0 and 8 from 10 = 2.

Multiply that result by the number to the left of the parentheses.

0 by 8 = 0, 3 by 0 = 0 and 9 by 2 = 18.

Add the three products together.

0 + 0 + 18 = 18

Divide the sum of the three products by 2.

18 ÷ 2 = 9

Will mark the Brainliest !!!!! A team of 5 boys and 4 girls will be chosen from a group of 16 boys and 13 girls,
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of permutations of boys and girls on the team are:

¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄

1.

Bob will be one of the fixed boys to be picked. Hence, actually 4 boys are to be picked from 15. The permutations of girls being picked remains the same.

Probability = Permutations with Bob as one of the boys / Total permutations

Probability = (¹⁵P₄*¹³P₄) / (¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄) = ¹⁵P₄ / ¹⁶P₅

Probability = \frac{15!}{(15-4)!}/\frac{16!}{(16-5)!} = 15! / 16! = 1/16

2.

Now, Bob is one of the fixed boys and Jane is one of the fixed girls. Hence, actually 4 boys are to be picked from 15 and 3 girls are to be picked from 12.

Probability = Permutations with bob as one of the boys and jane as one of the girls / Total permutations

Probability = (¹⁵P₄*¹²P₃) / (¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄) = (1/16)*(1/13) = 1/208

3.

Now, the probability that at least Jane or Bob will be picked has been asked. This probability is a combination of three probabilities:

Probability = (Probability that only Bob will be picked) + (Probability that only Jane will be picked) + (Probability that both will be picked)

Probability = 1/16 + 1/13 + 1/208 = 0.123

4.

Total teams possible = ¹⁶P₅*¹³P₄ = 8994585600 teams are possible

X-coordinate the definition for that
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

An x-coordinate is the x value in an ordered pair, which is just two mathematical objects, such as numbers, paired together. Usually, the x-coordinate is the first number in that pair. For instance, in the ordered pair (2,5), the x-coordinate would be '2.

1.What basic trigonometric identity would you use to verify that cot x sin x = cos x? . .
zavuch27 [327]
1 ) cot x * sin x = cos x
(cos x / sin x) * sin x = cos x 
cos x = cos x
Answer: B ) cot x = cos x / sin x
2 ) ( sin² x + cos² x ) / cos x = sec x
1/cos x = sec x
sec x = sec x
Answer: C ) cos² x + sin² x = 1

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

x<-2

Step-by-step explanation:

You first subtract 4 from both sides. Then you divide both sides by -8 (note: when you multiply or divide by a negative the sign flips. Then you get your answer
