Two rules for creating a pattern are given below. Each rule begins with a number called the input and creates a number called the output. Rule 1: Subtract 8 from the input to get the output. Rule 2: Divide the input by 3 to get the output. Which input and output table works for both rules?

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation

yes.. it's proven to be 36.

18 units²

step-by-step explanation:

first let's find altitude bd using the distance formula

d = √((y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²)

bd = √((0 - -3)² + (0 - 3)²)

bd = √18

given the placement of points a and c, we can denote that point d bisects segment ac.

we will call ac the base.

using the distance formula

ac = √((0 - 6)² + (-6 - 0)²)

ac = √72

knowing our base and our height, we can plug these into our triangle area formula

area = (b * h)/2

area = (√18 * √72) / 2

area = (√1296) / 2

area = 36 / 2

area = 18 units²
