What is the area of the trapezoid?
a) 16 square units
b) 24 square units
c) 32 square units
d) 36 square units

24 Square Units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is h*([b1+b2]/2)

If you substitue the numbers, you get 4*([4+8]/2), which simplifies down to 24

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
