Answer:
70.15 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure consists of two adjacent equilateral triangles (all angles are 60 degrees and all outer edges are 9 ft).
If we focus on one of these equilateral triangles, we can get the final area by multiplying the area of that one triangle by 2.
The formula for the area of a triangle is (1/2)(base)(height). Remembering to multiply this by 2, we get
area of figure = (base)(height)
√3
= (9 ft)(9 ft)(--------) = (81 ft²)(1.732) = 70.15 ft²

240÷15=16 seats at each table
Since there were 15 tables and 240 in total you have to divide to find the number of seats at a table
Answer:
y = 3 · 2ˣ
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential function is:
y = abˣ
Plug in the points:
⅜ = ab⁻³
12 = ab²
Solve the system of equations. Start by dividing the second equation by the first:
12 / ⅜ = (ab²) / (ab⁻³)
32 = b⁵
b = 2
Plug into either equation to find a:
a = 3
Therefore:
y = 3 · 2ˣ
