A farmer is mapping out one of his fields and is placing markers to section off areas to use for different crops. He has placed marker 1 at the point (2, 1), marker 2 at the point (-3, 1), and marker 3 at the point (2, 5). Each grid on the map is a square acre.

If the farmer wants to make a triangular field for soybeans between the markers, what will the area of the field be?

help I'm forced to comment on every question I'm locked in a basement pls send help the address is-  

6,250

step-by-step explanation:

to get the area, multiply 360 by 160.(57,600)

to find out how many bags of fertilizer it will take, first figure out how many square feet one bag can hold. divide 1000 by 8(125) to get the unit rate(how many square feet one pound of fertilizer can hold)and multiply it by 50(6250). if i haven't made a mistake, that is the answer.
