On a coordinate plane, triangle R S T has points (negative 5, 6), (3, 4), and (negative 2, 2). Which expression can be used to find the area of triangle RST?

(8 ∙ 4) - One-half (10 + 12 + 16)
(8 ∙ 4) - (10 + 12 + 16)
(8 ∙ 4) - One-half (5 + 6 + 8)
(8 ∙ 4) - (5 - 6 - 8)

d

step-by-step explanation:

given

y + 3 = - 4(x - 2) ← distribute the parenthesis

y + 3 = - 4x + 8 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

y = - 4x + 5 → d

c.

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.
