Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of an equation for a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).
We can calculate the slope from the two given points, (6,-3) and (-6,-5). Slope is Rise/Run, where Rise is the change in y and Run is the change in x.
From the two given points, starting at (-6,-5) and going to (6,-3):
Rise = (-3 - (-5)) = +2
Run = (6 - (-6)) = 12
Rise/Run (slope) = 2/12 or 1/6
The equation becomes y = (1/6)x + b
We can find b by enterieng either of the two given points and solving for b. I'll pick (6,-3):
y = (1/6)x + b
-3 = (1/6)*(6) + b
-3 = 1 + b [Now you can see why I chose (6,-3)]
b = -4
The equation is y = (1/6)x - 4

Answer:
The answer is 960.
8 x 12 x 20 is 1920. 1920 divided by 2 is 960.
Answer:
1066 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is given by the formula: 1/2bh, where b is the length of the base, and h is the height of the triangle. You are given the length of the base as 82ft. The height (more commonly referred to as the altitude) is given as 26ft. Multiply the two together and then half the result to get 1,066ft^2.
