Answer:

Formula of the area of triangle = 1/2 × b × h (where 'b' is the base and 'h' is the height)

1 hectare = $36

$486 = 13.5 hectares

13.5 hectares = 1/2 × b × h

To get b × h, you use the reverse of the formula. Hence:

13.5 = 1/2 × b × h

13.5 ÷ 1/2 = b × h

               = 27

27 is b × h.

The question states that the base is three times the height. Hence:

b = 3u

h = 1u

b × h = 27

        = 3u × 1u

Thus, we need to find one value which is three times the other, in order to get a product of 27.

Factors of 27:

1 × 27

3 × 9

9 is three times of 3. Thus, the base is 9, while the height is 3.

Answer:

Point B

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines given:

  • y= 2/5x - 1/2
  • y= -1/3x +2/3

x coordinate of intersection of given lines is:

  • 2/5x - 1/2= -1/3x+2/3
  • 2/5x+1/3x= 2/3 +1/2
  • 6/15x+5/15x= 4/6+3/6
  • 11/15x=7/6
  • x= 7*15/11*6
  • x= 35/22

For this value of x, the value of y is:

  • y= 2/5*35/22 - 1/2
  • y=14/22- 1/2
  • y= 3/22

As per graph point (35/22, 3/22) is point B

What is an equation of the line that is parallel to y=9−5x and passes through (0, 8) ?
TEA [102]

Answer:

y = -5x Y8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Your function is

y = 9 − 5x = -5x+ 9

slope = -5

The parallel line

The line must have slope = -5 and include (0, 8), so

8 = -5×(0) + b

8 = 0 + b

b = 8

The equation for the parallel line is

y = -5x + 8

In the diagram below, the red line is the graph of y = 9 -5x.

The parallel blue line is the graph of y = -5x + 8.
