The ratio of the amount of almonds in bag a to the amount of bag b was 8: 5. after 12 ounces of almonds were transferred from bag a to bag b, the amount of almonds in both bags became the same. how many ounces of almonds were originally in bag b?

12oz=2.5 ratio space.

So 5.0 divided by 2.5=2 and 12oz multiplied by 2=24oz

So 24oz

the area of a triangle is determined by the formula: base x height * 1/2

you'll need to assign a base to the triangle. based on the vertices given, the simplest base would be the line segment from (-2,1) to (2,1). the distance between any two numbers is found by just subtracting them. here, you should subtract the x values to find the distance of this side.

2 - (-2) = 4.

so the distance (aka the length of the base) is 4. the height of the triangle is the distance between the base and the highest point on the triangle which is (3,4). we should subtract the y values this time to find the height/distance.

4 - 1 = 3

so the height is 3.

base = 4

height = 3

hope this if needed hmu
