Dax is buying coffee for 5 people in his office. He also leaves a $2.00 tip for the barista. If his total, with tip, is $18.25, how much is each cup of coffee, not including the tip?

18 units²

step-by-step explanation:

first let's find altitude bd using the distance formula

d = √((y₂ - y₁)² + (x₂ - x₁)²)

bd = √((0 - -3)² + (0 - 3)²)

bd = √18

given the placement of points a and c, we can denote that point d bisects segment ac.

we will call ac the base.

using the distance formula

ac = √((0 - 6)² + (-6 - 0)²)

ac = √72

knowing our base and our height, we can plug these into our triangle area formula

area = (b * h)/2

area = (√18 * √72) / 2

area = (√1296) / 2

area = 36 / 2

area = 18 units²

2/3=10/15

1/5=3/15

10+3=13/15

2 13/15 is the answer
