The answer is 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²
The area (A) of the parallelogram with altitude a and base b is:
A = a * b
We have:
A = ?
a = 6 in
Since 1 inch is 0.083 feett, then 6 inches is
a = 6 * 0.083 ft = 0.498 ft ≈ 0.5 ft = 1/2 ft
b = 1 1/2 ft = 1 + 1/2 ft = 2/2 + 1/2 ft = 3/2 ft
_______
A = a * b
a = 1/2 ft
b = 3/2 ft
A = 1/2 * 3/2 = 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
9$ x 71 hours (rewritten) 9x 71 = 639
plus the commission
10% x 1,901$ (rewritten) .1 x 1,901 = 190.1
639 + 190.1 = 829.1
Answer:
B. 80
Step-by-step explanation:
3 consecutive integers: x-1 , x , x+1
(x-1) + x + (x+1) = -27
3x = -27
x = -9
smallest: -9-1 : -10
largest: -9+1 : -8
product of the smallest and largest of the three integers: (-10)*(-8)=80
Factor this by grouping. Group the first two terms together and then the second 2 terms together. The idea here is that, after grouping, what you can pull out in both groups is the same. Like this:

Now work on finding a common thing between the 2 groups:

See, what you have in common there now is the (x-9) that you can factor out:

And that is factored completely.
