The answer is 25 13/20 square feet.
In order to complete this operation, it is first best to change your mixed numbers into improper fractions.
7 1/8 = 57/8
7 1/5 = 36/5
Now that we have these, we can put them into the triangle formula.
A = 1/2bh
A = (1/2)(57/8)(36/5)
A = 1026/40
You can then simplify this fraction by dividing the top and bottom by a factor of 2.
A = 513/20
Then, because we know 20 goes into 500, 25 times, we can pull that out and be left with a remainder of 13/20.
A = 25 13/20
15% is equal to 15/100
15 divided by 100 = 0.15
0.15 is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
2(2x+5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the rectangle=l= 3x
Breadth of the rectangle=b= 5
Perimeter= 2(l+b)
= 2(3x+5)
Sum/difference:
Let
This means that
Now, assume that 
is rational. The sum/difference of two rational numbers is still rational (so 5-x is rational), and the division by 3 doesn't change this. So, you have that the square root of 8 equals a rational number, which is false. The mistake must have been supposing that was rational, which proves that the sum/difference of the two given terms was irrational
Multiplication/division:
The logic is actually the same: if we multiply the two terms we get
if again we assume x to be rational, we have
But if x is rational, so is -x/15, and again we come to a contradiction: we have the square root of 8 on one side, which is irrational, and -x/15 on the other, which is rational. So, again, x must have been irrational. You can prove the same claim for the division in a totally similar fashion.
