Solve each of the equations independently, then determine if the are continuous or discontinuous.
15≥-3x [start here]
-5≤x [divide both sides by (-3). *Dividing by a negative number means the direction of the sign changes!]
x≥-5 [just turned around for analysis]
Next equation:
2/3x≥-2 [start here]
x≥-2(3/2) [multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal, 3/2)
x≥-3
So, (according to the first equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -5.
(According to the second equation) all values of x must be greater than, or equal to -3.
So, when graphed on a number line, both equations graph in the same direction, so they are continuous.
Answer:
<em>97.5 sq. ft.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Im presuming the question asks to find area of the shaded region.
First of all, the total figure is a rectangle. We can write an expression(in words) for the shaded area.
<em>Shaded Area = Area of Rectangle - Area of Small Triangle(White) - Area of Large Triangle(White)</em>
Now, we find respective areas.
Area of rectangle:
length * width = (5+10) * (12) = 15 * 12 = 180
Area of Small Triangle (white):
A = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 5 * (12-3) = (1/2) * 5 * 9 = 22.5
Area of Large Triangle (white):
A = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 10 * (12) = 60
Now, we find area of shaded region:
<em>Shaded Area = Area of Rectangle - Area of Small Triangle(White) - Area of Large Triangle(White)</em>
<em>Shaded Area = 180 - 22.5 - 60 = 97.5 sq. ft.</em>
