Aword problem using system of linear equations of form ax+by=c problem: a fruit company delivers fruit in 2 types of boxes. large and small. a delivery of 3 large boxes and 5 small boxes had a total weight of 77 kilograms. a delivery of 6 large boxes and 2 small boxes weights 104 kilograms. how much does each type of box weight?

answer: 8

step-by-step explanation:

the area of a triangle is determined by the formula: base x height * 1/2

you'll need to assign a base to the triangle. based on the vertices given, the simplest base would be the line segment from (-2,1) to (2,1). the distance between any two numbers is found by just subtracting them. here, you should subtract the x values to find the distance of this side.

2 - (-2) = 4.

so the distance (aka the length of the base) is 4. the height of the triangle is the distance between the base and the highest point on the triangle which is (3,4). we should subtract the y values this time to find the height/distance.

4 - 1 = 3

so the height is 3.

base = 4

height = 3
