Which of the following statements best describes how the U. S. recession is affecting other countries? a. The US recession
appears to be having no effect on the financial well-being of other countries.
b. Due to the loss of income from foreclosed homes, like the U. S., citizens in other countries are
having trouble getting loans for home or personal use.
c. While citizens are having trouble getting loans from American banks due to the U. S. recession,
local banks are eating up the customers with more accessible loans.
d. Since lenders are not as willing to lend in the U. S., they are more willing to lend to citizens of
other countries. Borrowers are finding it very easy to get approved for loans overseas.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

a c
