Find the area of a triangle bounded by the y-axis, the line f(x)=9−4/7x, and the line perpendicular to f(x) that passes through the origin.
area =

ANSWER:  

The area of the triangle bounded by the y-axis is  

SOLUTION:

Given,

Consider f(x) = y. Hence we get

--- eqn 1

On rewriting the terms we get

4x + 7y – 63 = 0

As the triangle is bounded by two perpendicular lines, it is an right angle triangle with y-axis as hypotenuse.

Area of right angle triangle = where a, b are lengths of sides other than hypotenuse.

So, we need find length of f(x) and its perpendicular line.

First let us find perpendicular line equation.

Slope of f(x) =

So, slope of perpendicular line =

Perpendicular line is passing through origin(0,0).So by using point slope formula,

Where m is the slope and

--- eqn 2

4y = 7x

7x – 4y = 0  

now, let us find the vertices of triangle, one of them is origin, second one is point of intersection of y-axis and f(x)

for points on y-axis x will be zero, to get y value, put x =0 int f(x)

0 + 7y – 63 = 0

7y = 63

y = 9

Hence, the point of intersection is (0, 9)

Third vertex is point of intersection of f(x) and its perpendicular line.

So, solve (1) and (2)

Put x value in (2)

So, the point of intersection is

Length of f(x) is distance between and (0,9)

Now, length of perpendicular of f(x) is distance between

Now, area of right angle triangle =

Hence, the area of the triangle is

step-by-stp

the correct answer is the section c

50*10 is greater

step-by-step explanation:

if you add the zero from 10 to 50, it will give you a bigger number.
