Answer:
Y-intercept = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is written in Slope Intercept Form or y = mx+b Form, where b represents the y-intercept and m represents the slope of the equation.
First let’s call the square shape A and the rectangle shape B.
To find the area of shape A you do 24 x 24 = 576cm squared
To find the area of shape B you do 40 x 24 = 960cm squared
To find the total area you just add the two areas together
576 + 960 = 1536cm squared
