So first you would divide 12 in half to figure out how many inches it moves in 24 hours (or 1 day) which would be 6 inches every 24 hours. You then multiply 6 (inches per day) by 7 (# of days). You end up with 42 inches in 7 days. Hope this helps

How to find the area of a polygon

ipn [44]

The rectangle is 7 x 4 so the area is 28 sq cm
The triangle has a base of 4 and a height of 3.
The formula is A = 1/2 * b*h
You have 2 triangles so:
2(1/2)*4*3= 12 sq cm
Add together:
28 + 12= 40 sq cm
