Stacy and neil painted 280 ft2 of their living room wall with 4/5 gallon of paint. how many square feet can they paint with 3 gallons of paint?

enter your answer in the box

d.) 48 units

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

hope this if needed hmu

the ratio would be 4: 3, the four being for jackson, and the three being not for him.
