the figure at the right shows the dimensions of the garden in Marissa's back yard. What is the area of the garden?
1 answer:
The area of the garden is 74 square feet
<h3>How to determine the area of the garden?</h3>The complete question is added as an attachment
From the attached figure, we have the following shapes and dimensions:
- Rectangle: 10 by 5 feet
- Trapezoid: Bases = 10 and 6; Height = 3
The rectangular area is
A1 = 10 * 5
Evaluate
A1 = 50
The area of the trapezoid is
A2 = 0.5 * Sum of parallel bases * height
This gives
A2 = 0.5 * (10 + 6) * 3
Evaluate
A2 = 24
The total area is
Total = A1 + A2
This gives
Total = 50 + 24
Evaluate
Total = 74
Hence, the area of the garden is 74 square feet

5x + 2(x + 1) ≤ 23
Distribute the 2.
5x + 2x + 2 ≤ 23
Combine like terms.
7x + 2 ≤ 23
Subtract 2 from both sides.
7x ≤ 21
Divide both sides by 7
x ≤ 3
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
here m = - , hence
y = - x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 3, - 1) into the partial equation
- 1 = 2 + c ⇒ c = - 1 - 2 = - 3
y = - x - 3 ← is the equation of the line
