Answer: 40
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is in point-slope form. To change it to standard form, you must distribute -1/2 to (x+4) to get -1/2x-2. Your equation should now be y-8 = -1/2x-2. You should then add 1/2x to both sides (to cancel out -1/2x on the right side). Now, you should have y+1/2x-8 = -2. Finally, add 8 to both sides (to cancel out -8 on the left side) and flip the x and the y to get a final answer of 1/2x+y = 6.
Area of a trapezoid: (top + bottom)/2 x height
Area = (6.5 + 15.1)/2 x 5
Area = 21.6/2 x 5
Area = 10.8 x 5
Area = 54 square inches.
