I think that you should imagine what regular shape the figure would have been.
The fact that two sides are 9inches makes me think it would have been a square.
The area of a square is A= l² where l is the length of one side and A=area
A=9*9
A=81 in.²
Next, find the area of the part that is taken away,(it looks like a triangle). to find that, if the figure was a square, the length on top would be 9 not 5, so the length gone is 9-5=4, so the base of the triangle is 4,
If the figure was a square, the length on the other side would be 9 not 4 so the length gone is 9-4=5, so the height of the triangle is 5
the area of a triangle is A= 1/2bh, where A is area, b is base and h is height.
A=1/2*4*5   A=10 so the area of the part gone is 10 inches²
The area of the figure is the area of the square -the area of the triangle
A=81-10
A=71inches²

Leonard and Liam each own a collection of vintage cars. Leonard has 7 cars more than Liam has. Three times the number of cars Le
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer: The answer is (22, 15).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that 'x' represents the number of cars Leonard has and 'y' represents the number of cars Liam has.

Then, according to the given information, we have

x-y=7,\\\\3x+2y=96.

Multiplying the first equation by 2 and adding to the second equation, we have

2x+3x=14+96\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=110\\\\\Rightarrow x=22.

So,

y=x-7=22-7=15.

Therefore, Leonard has 22 cars and Liam has 15 cars.

Thus, (22, 15) is the solution to the given system.

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do is you subtract 1 3/8 from 54 3/4 which gives you Carl's height, which is 53 3/8.

Lastly, you subtract 1 1/5 from 53 3/8 which is 52 7/40.

What value of c makes the trinomial below a perfect square x2 + 7x + c?
Daniel [21]
We have that
x²<span> + 7x + c
</span><span>Group terms that contain the same variable
</span>(x² + 7x )+ c
<span>Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation 
</span>(x² + 7x+3.5² )+ c-3.5²

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x+3.5)²+ c-3.5²
so
c-3.5² must be zero
c-3.5²=0------- c=3.5²------> c=12.25

the answer is
the value of c must be 12.25
