The trapezoid above is cut into two triangles with a black line. Find the area of the two triangles and add the areas together. (HINT: Don't forget that you have to divide by 2 for the area of triangles!) No labels.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle with base and height is given by . In the trapezoid, the two triangles share a height of 6, however one has a base of 6 and the other has a base of 8.

Area of smaller triangle (triangle on the left):

Area of larger triangle (triangle on the right):

Therefore, the sum of their areas are

rounding to the nearest thousandth would be 452,000

step-by-step explanation:

y = | -2(-2) |     →     y = | 4 |     →     y = 4       ⇒   (-2, 4)

y = | -2(-1) |     →     y = | 2 |     →       y =   2       ⇒   (-1, 2)    

y = | -2(0) |     →     y = | 0 |     →       y = 0         ⇒   (0, 0)

y = | -2(1) |   c →     y = | -2 |     →     y =   2         ⇒   (1, 2)    

y = | -2(2) |     →     y = | - 4 |     →     y =   4         ⇒   (2, 4)
