Geometry Question! I got the first question, but I can not figure out the second.
Please don't answer if you don't know! Or I'll report you!
Thanks in advance :)

I'll answer question 2

600,000 square miles

===============================================

Explanation:

Draw a line segment from point B to point D. This divides the quadrilateral into two triangles ABD and BCD.

Refer to the attached image below. First look at figure 1.

This shows triangle ABD with base AD = 800 and height 300. The height is the vertical distance from point B to the x axis. Note how point B is 300 units above the x axis. The height is shown in blue, and the height is always perpendicular to the base.

The area of triangle ABD is...

area = (base*height)/2 = (800*300)/2 = 120,000 square miles

We'll use this later.

---------------------------------

Now refer to figure 2 in the attached images.

This shows triangle BCD. It has base CD = 800. It might help to rotate the triangle so that CD is horizontal. The height, shown in blue, is perpendicular to the base. It is 1200 units because we span from x = -800 to x = 400 which is a total horizontal distance of |-800-400| = 1200

The area of triangle BCD is....

area = (base*height)/2 = (800*1200)/2 = 480,000 square miles

---------------------------------

Lastly, we'll add up the two triangular areas we found

area of quadrilateral ABCD = (area of triangle ABD) + (area of triangle BCD)

area of quadrilateral ABCD = (120,000 sq mi) + (480,000 sq mi)

area of quadrilateral ABCD = 600,000 square miles

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
