JKL is given with J (-1,1), K (4,4), and L (5,1). What is the area of JKL? Justify your response.

9514 1404 393

  9 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The base JL is a horizontal line. Its length is 5-(-1) = 6.

The height is the difference between the y-coordinate of K and the y-coordinate of the horizontal line: 4 -1 = 3.

The formula for the area of a triangle is ...

  A = (1/2)bh

  A = (1/2)(6)(3) = 9 . . . square units

The area of ∆JKL is 9 square units.

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.
