A right triangle has one vertex on the graph of y = x^8, x>0, at (x, y), another at the origin, and the third on the positive y-axis at (0, y), as shown in the figure. Express the area A of the triangle as a function of x.

Area =

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph attached,

Triangle given is a right triangle.

This triangle ha three vertices (0, y), (x, y) and (0, 0).

Therefore, measure of the base = x units

And measure of the height of the triangle = y units

Area of a triangle =

                             =

Since, y =

Therefore, Area of the triangle =

                                                   =  

Area of the given right triangle is units².

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
