Step-by-step explanation:
1. The line y=12-4x has the slope -4, then perpendicular line will have slope
The equation of this perpendicular line is
2. The vertices of the triangle are at points:
A: x=0, y=0.
B: x=0, y=12.
C:
3. The height of the triangle ABC is x-coordinate of point C, so the base of the triangle is the length of the segment AB, 12 cm.
4. The area of the triangle ABC is
$5
Step-by-step explanation:
Leo has $5, because if he started with $8 and spent 3, he now had 5.
