On a coordinate plane, parallelogram A B C D is shown. Point A is at (negative 3, negative 1), point B is at (7, 9), point C is at (8, negative 1), and point D is at (negative 2, negative 11). Create a rectangle around the parallelogram. The dimensions of this rectangle are . Find the area of the four right triangles surrounding the parallelogram. The total area of the triangles is square units. Subtract the triangle areas from the area of the rectangle to obtain the area of the parallelogram. The area of parallelogram ABCD is square units.

c. (3,2,6) is the answer.

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)

i hope that is right.
