The area of a triangle is 1/2 bh
so to find the area of the larger triangle do the following calculation:
1/2 time 12 time 7. that will give you 42 ft squared. that is the larger triangle.
the next way to find the area i will show you is:
pretend that the the triangle is inside of a rectangle. now you have 4 triangles. you know that the base of the rectangle is 15 ft anf the height is 7. now take the smaller triangle and it has its rectangle base 3 and height 7. multiply to get 21 feet squared. divide by 2 since there are 2 triangles in the small rectangle. 10.5 feet squared
Answer: 2 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
we have to turn this into a improper fractions first (so its something like a bobble-head)
(2 2/5) 5 x 2 = 10 + 2 = 11/5
(3 1/4) 3 x 4 = 12 + 1 = 13/4
Then add those two.
11/5 + 13/4
11 + 13 = 24
5 + 4 = 9
so now its time to put it in simplest form 8/3
Now 8 divided by 3...BUT WAIT...3 can't go into 8
Now we turn it into a Mixed Number 2 2/3
5 and 7 that’s the answer
Using the elimination method, the value of x in the system of equations is calculated as: 8.
<h3>How to Solve a System of Equations by Elimination?</h3>
To solve a system of equations given using the elimination method, do the following:
Multiply 2x - 5y = 1 by 2 and multiply -3x + 2y = -18 by 5 to get the following:
4x - 10y = 2 --> eqn. 1
-15x + 10y = -90 --> eqn. 2
Add
-11x = -88
Divide both sides by -11
x = 8
