Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The statement is true for every n between 0 and 77 and it is false for [tex]n\geq 78[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, observe that, for n=0 and n=1 the statement is true:

For n=0: [tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=0 \leq 0=(4n)^4[/tex]

For n=1: [tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=16 \leq 256=(4n)^4[/tex]

From this point we will assume that [tex]n\geq 2[/tex]

As we can see, [tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=\sum^{n}_{i=0} 16i^4=16\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4[/tex] and [tex](4n)^4=256n^4[/tex]. Then,

[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4 \leq(4n)^4 \iff \sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4[/tex]

Now, we will use the formula for the sum of the first 4th powers:

[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4=\frac{n^5}{5} +\frac{n^4}{2} +\frac{n^3}{3}-\frac{n}{30}=\frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]\sum^{n}_{i=0} i^4 \leq 16n^4 \iff \frac{6n^5+15n^4+10n^3-n}{30} \leq 16n^4 \\\\ \iff 6n^5+10n^3-n \leq 465n^4 \iff 465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0[/tex]

and, because [tex]n \geq 0[/tex],

[tex]465n^4-6n^5-10n^3+n\geq 0 \iff n(465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1)\geq 0 \\\iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2+1\geq 0 \iff 465n^3-6n^4-10n^2\geq -1\\\iff n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1[/tex]

Observe that, because [tex]n \geq 2[/tex] and is an integer,

[tex]n^2(465n-6n^2-10)\geq -1 \iff 465n-6n^2-10 \geq 0 \iff n(465-6n) \geq 10\\\iff 465-6n \geq 0 \iff n \leq \frac{465}{6}=\frac{155}{2}=77.5[/tex]

In concusion, the statement is true if and only if n is a non negative integer such that [tex]n\leq 77[/tex]

So, 78 is the smallest value of n that does not satisfy the inequality.

Note: If you compute  [tex](4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4[/tex] for 77 and 78 you will obtain:

[tex](4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=53810064[/tex]

[tex](4n)^4- \sum^{n}_{i=0} (2i)^4=-61754992[/tex]

Answer 2
Final answer:

We will use mathematical induction to prove this inequality.

Explanation:

We will prove this inequality using mathematical induction. First, let's check the base case when n = 0. The left-hand side (LHS) of the inequality is 0 and the right-hand side (RHS) is (4*0)^4 = 0. So, the inequality holds for n = 0.

Next, assume that the inequality holds for some positive integer k, i.e.,

∑([2i]^4) ≤ (4k)^4 (where the sum is taken from i = 0 to k)

We will prove that it also holds for k + 1. Adding the (k+1)th term to both sides of the inequality:

∑([2i]^4) + ([2(k+1)]^4) ≤ (4k)^4 + ([2(k+1)]^4)

Now, simplifying the LHS and RHS:

(∑([2i]^4)) + ([2(k+1)]^4) ≤ (4k)^4 + ([2(k+1)]^4)

The New Mexico Division of Fish and Wildlife keeps track of the silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River. They tagged 54 silvery minnows and released them. A week later, they captured 62 silvery minnows, including 12 tagged silvery minnows. What is a good estimate of the silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River?

Answers

Answer: There are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tagged silvery minnows = 54

Number of captured silvery minnows = 62

It includes 12 tagged silvery minnows.

So, Number of silvery minnows without tags = 62 -12 =50

So, Good estimate of the silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River would be

[tex]54+50\\\\=104[/tex]

Hence, there are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.

I had this class in college where the semester’s four exams weighed 10%, 15%, 25%, and 50%, respectively. The class average on each of the exams where 75%, 91%, 63%, 87%, respectively. Create two vectors in to represent the data. Calculate the dot product of your two vectors. What does the scalar value represent in terms of the class?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]v_{1}.v_{2} = 0.804[/tex]

In terms of the class, the dot product represents the weighed class average.

Step-by-step explanation:

The two vectors are:

-[tex]v_{1}:[/tex] The weight of each of the semester's exams.

[tex]v_{1} = (10%, 15%, 25%, 50%)[/tex]

In decimal:

[tex]v_{1} = (0.10, 0.15, 0.25, 0.50)[/tex]

-[tex]v_{2}:[/tex] The class average on each of the exams

In decimal:

[tex]v_{2} = (0.75, 0.91, 0.63, 0.87)[/tex]

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

Dot product:

Suppose there are two vectors, u and v

u = (a,b,c)

v = (d,e,f)

There dot product between the vectors u and v is:

u.v = (a,b,c).(d,e,f) = ad + be + cf

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

So

[tex]v_{1}.v_{2} = (0.10, 0.15, 0.25, 0.50).(0.75, 0.91, 0.63, 0.87) = 0.10*0.75 + 0.15*0.91 + 0.25*0.63 + 0.50*0.87 = 0.804[/tex]

[tex]v_{1}.v_{2} = 0.804[/tex]

In terms of the class, the dot product represents the weighed class average.

For each function below, determine whether or not the function is injective and whether| or not the function is surjective. Be sure to justify your answers. (a) f : N -> N given by f(n) =n+ 2
(b) f P({1,2, 3}) -» N given by f(A) = |A| (Note: P(S) denotes the power set of a set S.)

Answers

Answer:

a) injective but not surjective. b) neither injective nor surjective.

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is injective if there aren't repeated images. To check if a function is injective we are going to suppose that for two values in the domain the image is equal, then we need to find that the two values are equal.

a) f : N → N with f(n) = n+2.

suppose that for n and m natural numbers, f(n)=f(m). Then

n+2 = m+2

n+2-2 = m

n = m.

Then, f(n) is injective.

Now, a function is surjective if every term m in the codomain there exists a pre-image of that element, that is to say, there exists an n such that f(n) = m. That is, the range of the function is equal to the codomain.

In this case, f(n) is not surjective. For example, if we would have that

n+2 = 1

n = 1-2

n = -1

but -1 is not a natural number, then for m=1 we don't have a pre image in f.

b) f: P({1, 2, 3}) → N with f(A) = |A|  (amount of elements in the subset A).

Now, for {1,2,3} we can have subsets of 0, 1, 2 or 3 elements. Then, the range of the function f is {1, 2, 3} (0 is not included because 0 is not natural). Then, the range is not all the natural numbers and therefore the function is not surjective.

Now, let's check if f is injective. Let {1} and {2} subsets of {1, 2, 3}. Then

f({1}) = |{1}| = 1.

f ({2}) = |{2}| = 1.

We have two different subsets with the same image, then f is not injective.

Prove or disprove that the intersection of any collection
ofclosed sets is closed.

Answers

Answer:

Intersection of collection of any closed set is a closed set.    

Step-by-step explanation:

Let F be a collection of arbitrary closed sets and let [tex]B_i[/tex] be closed set belonging to F.

We define a closed set as the set that contains its limit point or in other words it can be described that the complement or not of a closed set is an open set.

Thus, we can write R as

[tex]R =\bigcap\limits_{B_i \in F }^{} B_i[/tex]

Now, applying De-Morgan's Theorem, we have

[tex]R^c = (\bigcap\limits_{B_i \in F }^{} B_i)^c[/tex]

[tex]R^c = \bigcup\limits_{B_i \in F }^{} B_i^c[/tex]

Since we knew[tex]B_i[/tex] are closed set, thus, [tex]B_i^c[/tex] is an open set.

We also know that union of all open set is an open set.

Thus, [tex]R^c[/tex] is an open set.

Thus, R is a closed set.

Hence, the theorem.  

The intersection of any collection of closed sets is indeed closed. This can be proven using the properties of complements in topology and by employing a contradiction approach where the assumption that the intersection is not closed leads to a contradiction, hence proving it must be closed.

The question addresses whether the intersection of any collection of closed sets is closed. In topology, a closed set is one where its complement (the elements not in the set) is open. One way to approach the proof is considering De Morgan's Laws, which in topology state that the intersection of closed sets is the complement of the union of their complements, which are open sets. Since the union of open sets is open, it follows that the complement (the intersection of our original sets) is closed.

For example, consider two closed intervals on the real line, A and B. The intersection, A B, would be the set of all points that are in both A and B. The fact that both A and B contain their boundary points ensures that their intersection also contains boundary points, maintaining closedness.

Proof strategy involves contradiction: assume the intersection is not closed. This would imply that its complement is not open, violating the definition that complements of closed sets are open, thus leading to a contradiction and proving the proposition is true.

In 1970 the male incarceration rate in the U.S. was approximately 190 inmates per 100,000 population. In 2008 the rate was 960 inmates per 100,000 population. What is the percent increase in the male incarceration rate during this period?

Answers

Answer:

405.26%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in 1970 the male incarceration rate in the U.S. was approximately 190 inmates per 100,000 population. In 2008 the rate was 960 inmates per 100,000 population.

[tex]\text{Percent increase}=\frac{\text{Final amount}-\text{Initial amount}}{\text{Initial amount}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percent increase}=\frac{960-190}{190}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percent increase}=\frac{770}{190}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percent increase}=4.052631578947\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percent increase}=405.2631578947\%[/tex]

[tex]\text{Percent increase}\approx 405.26\%[/tex]

Therefore, the percent increase in the male incarceration rate during the given period is 405.26%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The logics followed in order to find them:

Base numbers work exactly the same as base 10 numbers (the ones we use on a daily basis). Take for example, in a decimal system, we have 10 digits available:

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

when counting, when we get to the 9, we start over again, but writting a 1 to the left.

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12....20,21,22,23....,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100

when reaching 99, we have no more digits to use, so we start the count again and go from 99 to 100.

The same works with any other base number, take for example the base 7 numbet. When counting in base 7, we only have 7 digits available: (0,1,2,3,4,5,6) So when we re0_{7},ach the digit 6, we go immediately to 10, like this:

[tex]0_{7},1_{7},2_{7},3_{7},4_{7},5_{7},6_{7},10_{7},11_{7},12_{7},13_{7},14_{7},15_{7},16_{7},20_{7}...[/tex]

notice how it went from 6 to 10 and from 16 to 20. This is because in base 7, there is no such thing as digits from 7 to 9, so we don't have any other option to go directly to 20.

So, on part A) if we were working with decimal numbers, the  previous value for 640 would be 639, but notice that in base 7, there is no such thing as the digit 9, so the greatest digit we can use there would be 6, therefore, the previous value for the [tex]640_{7}[/tex] number would be [tex]636_{7}[/tex]. The next number would be [tex]641_{7}[/tex] because the 1 does exist for a base 7 system.

The same logics is followed for the rest of the problems.

One less than the given number is known as preceding number whereas one more than the given number is the succeeding number.

The logics followed in order to find them:

Base numbers work exactly the same as base 10 numbers (the ones we use on a daily basis). Take for example, in a decimal system, we have 10 digits available:

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

When counting, when we get to the 9, we start over again, but writing a 1 to the left.

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12....20,21,22,23....,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,10

When reaching 99, we have no more digits to use, so we start the count again and go from 99 to 100.

The same works with any other base number, take for example the base 7 number. When counting in base 7, we only have 7 digits available: (0,1,2,3,4,5,6) So when 0_{7},each the digit 6, we go immediately to 10, like this:

It went from 6 to 10 and from 16 to 20. This is because in base 7, there is no digits from 7 to 9, so we have directly to 20.

So, if working with decimal numbers, the previous value for 640 would be 639, but notice that in base 7,

There is no such thing as the digit 9, so the greatest digit we can use there 6,

Therefore, the previous value[tex]636_7[/tex] for the number would be [tex]636_7[/tex] . The next number would be [tex]632_7[/tex] because the 1 does exist for a base 7 system.

A rectangle field has a perimeter of 220 meters and an area of 2856 square meters. What are the dimensions?

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions are 68 meters by 42 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x

Let the width be y

Perimeter = 220 meter

So, [tex]2x+2y=220[/tex]

or [tex]x+y=110[/tex] or [tex]x=110-y[/tex]    ...........(1)

Area = 2856 square meter

So, [tex]xy=2856[/tex]     ............(2)

Substituting the value of x from (1) in (2)

[tex](110-y)y=2856[/tex]

=> [tex]110y-y^{2}=2856[/tex]

=> [tex]y^{2}-110y+2856=0[/tex]

Solving this equation, we get roots as y = 68 and y = 42

So, if we put y = 68, we get x = 42

If we put y = 42, we get x = 68

As length is longer than width, we will take length = 68 meters and width = 42 meters.

Hence, the dimensions are 68 meters by 42 meters.

Answers

Answer:

B. It is greater than the median.

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is an odd, prime integer and 10<n<19, then the true statements about the mean of all possible values of n are:

B. It is greater than the median.

Here, n can be 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18.

But as n is odd , it can be 11, 13, 15 and 17.

And also it is given that n is prime, so we will cancel out 15.

Now we are left with 11, 13 and 17.

Their mean is = [tex]\frac{11+13+17}{3}[/tex] = 13.66

Median is 13, that is smaller than 13.66.

So, we can see that the mean is greater than median.

Find the missing length to the nearest tenth of a meter of the
right triangle. One side is 1.4m and the other is 3.1. What is the
third side?

Answers

Answer:

length of the third side may be either 3.4 m or 2.8 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of two sides of a right triangle are 1.4 m and the other side is 3.1 m.

then we have to find the measure of third side.

If the third side of the triangle is its hypotenuse then

(Third side)² = (1.4)² + (3.1)²

Third side = [tex]\sqrt{(1.4)^{2}+(3.1)^{2}}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\sqrt{1.96+9.61}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\sqrt{11.57}[/tex]

                 = 3.4 m

If the third side is one of the perpendicular sides of the triangle and 3.1 m is hypotenuse, then

(Third side)² + (1.4)² = (3.1)²

(Third side)²= (3.1)² - (1.4)²

Third side = [tex]\sqrt{(3.1)^{2}-(1.4)^{2}}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\sqrt{9.61-1.96}[/tex]

                 = [tex]\sqrt{7.65}[/tex]

                 = 2.76 m

                 ≈ 2.8 m

Therefore, length of the third side may be either 3.4 m or 2.8 m.

(E) Of the lost items, 11% had an average cost of $150.

Answers

Answer:

(C) Of the lost items, 11% cost between $100 and $200

Step-by-step explanation:

On the Y-axis is represented the frequency of lost items found.

In this case in the form of a percentage.

On the X-axis is represented the range of prices

See picture attached.

So, this means that 11% of the found items have an estimated price between $100 and $200

A test tube contains 25 bacteria, 5 of which are can stay alive for atleast 30 days, 10 of which will die in their second day. 10 of which are already dead.
Given that a randomly chosen bacteria for experiment is alive. What is the probability it will still be alive after one week?
(a)1 ⁄ 3(b)2 ⁄3
(c) 1⁄5 (d)4 ⁄5

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that a randomly selected bacterium that's currently alive will still be alive after one week is 1/3. The calculation is done by dividing the number of bacteria that can stay alive for at least 30 days by the total number of bacteria that are currently alive.

Explanation:

The question pertains to the concept of probability in mathematics and it's asking for the likelihood that a randomly chosen bacteria from a test tube would still be alive after one week. Given that 15 bacteria are alive (5 will stay alive for at least 30 days, and 10 will die on the second day), and you have chosen a bacterium that is currently alive. After one week (7 days), only the 5 that can stay alive for at least 30 days will still be alive.

As a result, the probability that the chosen bacterium will still be alive after one week can be calculated by dividing the number of bacteria that can stay alive for at least 30 days (5) by the total number of currently alive bacteria (15).

Probablitiy = number of favourable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
Therefore, the probability that it will still be alive after one week is 5 / 15 = 1/3.

Therefore, the answer is (a) 1/3.

A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among males over age 25. They believe that the meat consumption has a mean of 3.8 pounds, and want to construct a 85% confidence interval with a maximum error of 0.06 pounds. Assuming a standard deviation of 1.3 pounds, what is the minimum number of males over age 25 they must include in their sample? Round your answer up to the next integer.

Answers

Final answer:

To construct an 85% confidence interval with a maximum error of 0.06 pounds (with a standard deviation of 1.3 pounds), a sample size of 275 males over age 25 would be required.

Explanation:

The subject of this question revolves around the mathematical concept of

confidence intervals

by utilizing the formula to find the appropriate sample size. As per the question about meat consumption among males over age 25, the company wish to construct an

85% confidence interval

with a maximum error of 0.06 pounds, with the standard deviation being 1.3 pounds. To find the minimum sample size necessary for the research, we'll have to use the following formula:

n=z²*σ²/E²

, where z is the z-score representative of the desired confidence level, σ is the known standard deviation, and E is the maximum acceptable error. Looking up the Z table or Z score table, 85% confidence corresponds to a z score of approximately 1.44. Substituting these values into the formula gives us n=1.44² * 1.3² / 0.06². This results to roughly 274.94, but since we can't have a fraction of a person, we round up to the nearest whole number, giving us a minimum sample size of 275.

A classroom has ten students. Three students are freshman, two are sophomores, and five are juniors. Three students are randomly selected (without replacement) to participate in a survey. Consider the following events: A = Exactly 1 of the three selected is a freshman B = Exactly 2 of the three selected are juniors Find the following probability. If needed, round to FOUR decimal places. Pr(A∩B) = ___________

Answers

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total of ten student, and three students are randomly selected (without replacement) to participate in a survey. So, the total number of subsets of size 3 is given by 10C3=120.

On the other hand A=Exactly 1 of the three selected is a freshman. We have that three students are freshman in the classroom, we can form 3C1 different subsets of size 1 with the three freshman; besides B=Exactly 2 of the three selected are juniors, and five are juniors in the classroom. We can form 5C2 different subsets of size 2 with the five juniors. By the multiplication rule the number of different subsets of size 3 with exactly 1 freshman and 2 juniors is given by

(3C1)(5C2)=(3)(10)=30 and

Pr(A∩B)=30/120=0.25

Final answer:

To find the probability that exactly one freshman and exactly two juniors are selected, we calculate the combination of selecting one from three freshmen and two from five juniors, then divide by the total combinations of selecting three students from ten. The probability is 0.25.

Explanation:

We need to find the probability Pr(A∩B) where:

A is the event that exactly 1 of the three selected is a freshman.B is the event that exactly 2 of the three selected are juniors.

For both events A and B to occur simultaneously, we must select one freshman and two juniors in our three student picks. The number of ways to choose one freshman out of three is C(3,1), and the number of ways to choose two juniors out of five is C(5,2). The total number of ways to choose any three students out of ten is C(10,3). Hence, the probability is:

Pr(A∩B) = (C(3,1) × C(5,2)) / C(10,3)

Calculating this gives:

Pr(A∩B) = (3 × 10) / 120 = 30 / 120

Pr(A∩B) = 0.25

Find m∠ABC. 20 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR CORRECT ANSWER

A. 10°
B. 21°
C. 37°
D. 53°

Answers

5x+3+3x+7=90
8x+10=90
8x=80
x=10

Answer:A

The measure of angle ABC in the figure is 53 degrees.

Option D) 53° is the correct answer.

From the figure in the image;

Angle ABC and angle CBD are complementary angles, hence, their sum equals 180 degrees.

From the figure:

Angle ABC = ( 5x + 3 )

Angle CBD = ( 3x + 7 )

First, we solve for x:

Since the two angles are complementary:

Angle ABC + Angle CBD = 90

( 5x + 3 ) + ( 3x + 7 ) = 90

5x + 3x + 3 + 7 = 90

8x + 10 = 90

8x = 90 - 10

8x = 80

x = 80/8

x = 10

Now, we find the measure of angle ABC:

Angle ABC = ( 5x + 3 )

Plug in x = 10:

Angle ABC = 5(10) + 3

Angle ABC = 50 + 3

Angle ABC = 53°

Therefore, angle ABC measures 53 degrees.

The correct option is D) 53°

At a large department store, the average number of years of employment for a cashier is 5.7 with a standard deviation of 1.8 years. If the number of years of employment at this department store is normally distributed, what is the probability that a cashier selected at random has worked at the store for over 10 years?

Answers

Answer:   0.0019

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable that represents the number of years of employment at this department store.

Given : The number of years of employment at this department store is normally distributed,

Population mean : [tex]\mu=5.7[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma=1.8[/tex]

Z-score : [tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Now, the z-value corresponding to 10 :  [tex]z=\dfrac{10-5.7}{1.8}\approx2.39[/tex]

P-value = [tex]P(x>10)=P(Z>2.89)=1-P(z\leq2.89)[/tex]

[tex]=1-0.9980737=0.0019263\approx0.0019\text{ (Rounded to nearest ten thousandth)}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a cashier selected at random has worked at the store for over 10 years = 0.0019

T F Any set of vectors containing the zero vector is linearly dependent

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B={[tex]v_1, v_2,\cdots,v_k,0[/tex]} a set of vectors containing the zero vector.

B is linear dependent if exist scalars [tex]a_0,a_1, a_2,\cdots,a_k[/tex] not all zero such that [tex]a_0*0+a_1*v_1+\cdots+a_k*v_k=0[/tex].

Observe that if [tex]a_1=a_2=\cdots=a_k=0[/tex] and [tex]a_0=\lambda\neq 0[/tex] then

[tex]\lambda*0+0*v_1+\cdots+0*v_k=0[/tex].

Then B is linear dependent.

Final answer:

True, any set of vectors that contains the zero vector is linearly dependent because a nontrivial combination of the vectors (including the zero vector scaled by any scalar) can produce the null vector.

Explanation:

True. Any set of vectors containing the zero vector is linearly dependent. This is because the null vector, which has all components equal to zero (0î + 0ç + 0k) and therefore no length or direction, can always be represented as a linear combination of other vectors in the set by simply scaling it by any scalar. In more technical terms, for a set of vectors that includes the zero vector, you can find a nontrivial combination (not all scalars being zero) such that when these scalars are applied to their respective vectors, their sum equals the zero vector. This is the very definition of linear dependency. For instance, if you consider any scalar 'a' not equal to zero, a∗0 + 0∗0 + ... + 0∗0 = 0, which demonstrates linear dependence because not all the scalars are zero (namely 'a' is not).

Linear independence would require that the only way to represent the zero vector as a linear combination of the set of vectors is to have all scalars that multiply each vector in the combination be zero. Since the set includes the zero vector itself, this condition is violated, and the set is dependent.

Find the area of the triangle with the vertices (2,1), (10,-1),
and(-1,8).

Answers

Answer:

The area of triangle is 25 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: Vertices of the triangle are (2,1), (10,-1), and (-1,8).

Formula for area of a triangle:

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}|x_1(y_2-y_3)+x_2(y_3-y_1)+x_3(y_1-y_2)|[/tex]

The given vertices are (2,1), (10,-1), and (-1,8).

Using the above formula the area of triangle is

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}|2(-1-8)+10(8-1)+(-1)(1-(-1))|[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}|2(-9)+10(7)+(-1)(1+1)|[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}|-18+70-2|[/tex]

On further simplification we get

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}|50|[/tex]

[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(50)[/tex]

[tex]A=25[/tex]

Therefore the area of triangle is 25 square units.
