Need answer 10 which equation would best solving the problem? the height of a triangle is 4 m less than its base. the area of the triangle is 48 m^2. find the length of the base. a. 48 = x(x-4) b. 48 = x^2 - 4 c. 48 = 1/2(x)(x-4) d. 48 = 1/2(x^2-4)8th grade middle school

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
