You find the area of a triangle by using 1/2*b*h where b is the base and h is the height. since we already know the area is 20 and the height is for you plus them in so the problem would be 20= 1/2 (b) (4) then you multiply what you know together to get 20= 2b and then isolate the b by dividing both sides by two so the base should be 10 m
To find both f(8) and f(-5), we will need to plug in their values for x and solve for each. Then, we can subtract them to find the final answer.
Finding f(8):
f(8) = 3(8) - 2
f(8) = 24 - 2
f(8) = 22
Finding f(-5):
f(-5) = 3(-5) - 2
f(-5) = -15 - 2
f(-5) = -17
Subtracting f(8) and f(-5):
f(8) - f(-5)
22 - - 17
22 + 17
39
