I don't know the area of a parallelogram off the top of my head but you can use the area of the rectangle and the area of the triangle and add those. The area of the triangle is 1/2*base*height and use the pythagorean theorem to find the base. 3² + b² = 5²; 9 + b² = 25; b² = 16; b = 4. The area of the triangle is 1/2*4*3 or 6 in. Since there are two of them, the total area of the triangles are 12 in. The area of the rectangle is length*width or (12 - 4) * 3 which is 8 * 3 or 24in. Add these areas together to get 36in total

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Since
have the same denominators, we add them first. We then add
to the result.
-3^6 = -729
-729 +(-4+7)(2)
-729 +(3)(2)
-729 + 6
-723
<em>hope it helps :)</em>
(ps: the result of -3^6 is not +729, the expression that would give this result is (-3)^6
F=length of first piece=x; S=length of second piece=2x
T=length of third piece=3x
.
F+S+T=24 inches
x+2x+3x=24 inches
6x=24in
F=x=4in
ANSWER 1: The length of the first piece is 4 inches.
.
S=2x=2(4in)=8in
ANSWER 2: The length of the second piece is 8 inches.
.
T=3x=3(4in)=12 inches.
ANSWER 3: The length of the third piece is 12 inches.
.
CHECK:
F+S+T=24in
4in+8in+12in=24in
24in=24in
