Octagon, stop sign.
Eight isoscles triangles. It looks like we're told the side is 9.9 and the height to the side (also called the apothem) is 12.
So each isosceles triangle has area (1/2)(9.9)(12) and we have eight of them,
area = 8(1/2)(9.9)(12) = 475.2
Answer: 475.2
Usually we wouldn't be told 9.9 -- this is the baby version. We know each of those isoscles triangles has unique angle 360/8=45 degrees, so the apothem and half the side of the octagon are a right triangle with acute angle 22.5 degrees.
The area of the right triangle with long leg 12, short leg x,
tan 22.5 = x/12 or
x = 12 tan 22.5
Twice that is what we're told is 9.9; let's check:
2x = 24 tan 22.5 = 9.941125496954282
The area of the little right triangle is
(1/2) 12 × 12 tan 22.5
and there are 16 of these
16 (1/2) 12 × 12 tan 22.5 ≈ 477.174

Answer:
a) x = -3
b) y = (28/27)x -27
Step-by-step explanation:
a) College street has a slope of 0, so is a horizontal line. 2nd Ave is perpendicular, so is a vertical line, described by an equation of the form ...
x = constant
For 2nd Ave to intersect the point (-3, 1), the constant must match that x-coordinate. The equation is ...
x = -3
__
b) Since Ace Rd is perpendicular to Davidson St, its slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the slope of Davidson St. The slope of Ace Rd is ...
m = -1/(-27/28) = 28/27
Using the point-slope equation for a line, we can model Ace Rd as ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
y -1 = (28/27)(x -27)
y = (28/27)x -27
To answer this you will combine both fractions together to get a total. The denominators are not the same so you will need to create equivalent fractions for both with a common denominator. The denominator is like the units, and to be able to add them they must be the same.
2/5 + 3/7
2/5 = 14/35 and 3/7 = 15/35
14/35 + 15/35 = 29/35
29/35 of the garden are these 2 flowers.
