Answer:

$16.60

Step-by-step explanation:

2.5x + 1.25(x - .20) = 31.25

2.5x + 1.25x - .25 = 31.25

3.75x - .25 = 31.25

3.75x = 31.25 + .25

3.75x/3.75 = 31.50/3.75

x = 8.40

y = x - .20

y = 8.20

1x + 1y = 16.60

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

Area = 96 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure = (2 x Area of triangles) + Area of square

Area \ of \ triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base \ height = \frac{1}{2} \times 8\times 4 = 16cm^2\\\\Area \ of \ square = side \times side = 8 \times 8 = 64cm^2

Therefore, Area \ of \ the\ figure = (2 \times 16) + 64 = 32 + 64 = 96cm^2

Given: 3x &lt; -6. <br><br> Choose the solution set.
timofeeve [1]
You want to isolate the variable using the division property of inequality:
3x / 3 < -6 / 3 = x < -2. The sign of the inequality stays the same since you did not change the order of the inequality nor did you divide by a negative number on both sides. Hopefully this helps!
