<span>Area that needs to be painted=1600 sq.ft. 1 gallon of paint covers 250 sq.ft. Total area for which paint needs to be bought=1600-250 sq.ft=1350 sq.ft. [Since, Mr. Arnold already has 1 gallon of paint] Total paint that needs to be bought=1350/250=5.4 gallons Alternatively, Total paint required=(Area to be painted/Coverage of 1 gallon of paint)-1 [Since, Mr. Arnold already has 1 gallon of paint] Total paint required= (1600/250)-1 gallons =6.4-1 gallons=5.4 gallons of paint is required</span>

Find f '(a).<br> f(x) = 4x2 − 4x + 3
Vinvika [58]
Use the power rule
  d(x^n)/dx = n·x^(n-1)
to form the derivative.
  f'(x) = 4·2x -4
  f'(x) = 8x - 4

Now, substitute "a" for "x" to find f'(a):
  f'(a) = 8a - 4

In the regular octagon below, if AP = 12 cm. and BC = 19 cm, find its area.
Blizzard [7]

First symmetrically cut the octagon to get 8 pieces. (So that you will get the idea that this polygon is divided into 8 triangles)

Then find the area of one of the triangles:

Area of Triangle = \frac{1}{2} * b* h

A = \frac{1}{2} × 12 × 19

A = 114 cm²

To find the area of the whole octagon shape:

A = 114 × 8 = 912 cm²
