5x - 29.4 + 1/2x when x is 11/5

-17.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluate 5 x + x/2 - 29.4 where x = 11/5:

5 x + x/2 - 29.4 = 5×11/5 - 29.4 + 1/2×11/5

Hint: | Express 5×11/5 as a single fraction.

5×11/5 = (5×11)/5:

(5×11)/5 - 29.4 + (11/5)/2

Hint: | Express (11/5)/2 as a single fraction.

(11/5)/2 = 11/(2×5):

(5×11)/5 - 29.4 + 11/(2×5)

Hint: | Cancel common terms in the numerator and denominator of (5×11)/5.

(5×11)/5 = 5/5×11 = 11:

11 - 29.4 + 11/(2×5)

Hint: | Multiply 2 and 5 together.

2×5 = 10:

11 - 29.4 + 11/10

Hint: | Approximate 11/10.

11/10≈1.1:

11 - 29.4 + 1.1

Hint: | Evaluate 11 + 1.1 using long addition.

| 1 | 1. | 0

+ | | 1. | 1

| 1 | 2. | 1:

12.1 - 29.4

Hint: | Factor out a negative sign in 12.1 - 29.4 in order to subtract.

12.1 - 29.4 = -(29.4 - 12.1):

-(29.4 - 12.1)

Hint: | Subtract 12.1` from 29.4`.

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
