Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the two digit number is 10x + y, where x is the first digit and y is the second digit.

The sum of the digits is 8:

x + y = 8

If 8 is subtracted from the number, the digits switch place.

10x + y − 8 = 10y + x

Simplify the second equation:

9x − 8 = 9y

Substitute from the first equation.

y = 8 − x

9x − 8 = 9 (8 − x)

9x − 8 = 72 − 9x

18x = 80

x = 4.444

There's a problem.  x isn't an integer.  Are you sure you copied the problem correctly?  Perhaps you meant if 18 is subtracted from the number, the digits switch place.

9x − 18 = 9 (8 − x)

9x − 18 = 72 − 9x

18x = 90

x = 5

y = 8 − x

y = 3

So the number is 53.

x+y=8\\10x+y-8=10y+x\\\\x+y=8|\cdot9\\9x-9y=8\\\\9x+9y=72\\\underline{9x-9y=8}\\18x=80\\x=\dfrac{80}{18}=\dfrac{40}{9}

x is not integer, so there must be a mistake in the problem.

Answer:

Area = 15.36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of the dotted line triangle using the formula: base x height x 1/2, which would be 1.2ft x 12.8 x 1/2 = 7.68ft.

Next, add another triangle at the top, mirroring the shown triangle, of the parallelogram.

Then, find the area of the shape as though it were a rectangle. (base x height) - 2.4 x 12.8 = 30.72.

Next, multiply the area of the invisible triangle by 2, 7.68 x 2 = 15.36ft

and Finally, subtract the area of the rectangle shape of the the sum of the two invisible triangles, 30.72 - 15.36 = 15.36ft

The area of the parallelogram is 15.36 ft.
