Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
For negative numbers, the larger the number is the smaller its value is. For example -18 is greater than -18.5. This is because -18 is closer to 0 than -18.5 is. If you were to plot -18 and -18.5 on a number line you would see that -18 is closer to 0.
The area of any triangle is (1/2) x (length of the base) x (height) .
In this problem, we know the triangle's height,
but what is the length of the base ?
The base is the side that the triangle is sitting on. This particular triangle
is an equilateral one, and its perimeter is 60m. So each side must be 20m.
No matter which side the triangle is sitting on, the length of the base is 20m.
Area = (1/2) x (base) x (height)
Area = (1/2) x (20m) x (17.3m) = <em>173 m²</em>
Additive inverses combine to get 0. So, k is -1.4. The sum is 0. Hopefully that will help.
