Answer:
42.5 Units squared
Step-by-step explanation:
Rectangle: 9.0 * 3.5 = 31.5
Square: 2 * 2 = 4
Left Triangle: 2 * 2 * .5 = 2
Right triangle: 5 * 2 * .5 = 5
31.5 + 4 + 2 + 5 = 42.5
This question is solved applying the formula of the area of the rectangle, and finding it's width. To do this, we solve a quadratic equation, and we get that the cardboard has a width of 1.5 feet.
Area of a rectangle:
The area of rectangle of length l and width w is given by:

w(2w + 3) = 9
From this, we get that:

Solving a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
.
This polynomial has roots
such that
, given by the following formulas:
In this question:


Thus a quadratic equation with 
Then


Width is a positive measure, thus, the width of the cardboard is of 1.5 feet.

C because the formula to find the are of a circle is A=(pi) * radius^2. To find the radius from diameter, just divide by two. So 60/2= 30 so now you can just plug in and 30 * 30 is 900 and 900 * pi, or 3.1415926535, is about 2827
The property used in #20 was called 'the distributive property'.
This property gets rid of the parenthesis and also gets the expression more simple.
x(y+b)
x*y + x*b ⇔ Notice the change here?
Answer would be: Distributive property
