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

The original price of a car is entered into spreadsheet cell A1 and the annual depreciation amount in cell B1.
Reil [10]

Answer:

A1 / B1 ;

(D1 - A1) / B1 ;

(A1 - E1*A1) / B1

Step-by-step explanation:

A1 = original price of car

B1 = annual Depreciation amount

Number of years it will take for the car to depreciate totally :

Using the straight line Depreciation relation :

y = mx + c

c = intercept = initial or original value of car

m = annual Depreciation amount

x = number of years

y = value after x years

For total Depreciation, final value, y = 0

0 = mx + c

mx = - c

x = - c / m

Hence, x = A1 / B1

B.)

D1 = car value

Length it will take for car to depreciate to value in D1 :

y = mx + c

y = D1; m = B1 ; c = A1

D1 = B1x + A1

B1x = D1 - A1

x = (D1 - A1) / B1

C.)

E1 = decrease percentage

Time it takes for car to decrease by percentage in E1

y = E1 * A1

E1 * A1 = B1x + A1

(A1 - E1*A1) = B1x

x = (A1 - E1*A1) / B1
