Answer:

It depends on the figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound figures we're generally concerned with are combinations of rectangles, triangles, circles or parts of circles, with or without cutouts of those shapes. The area is the sum of the areas of the component shapes, less the areas of any cutouts.

__

Consider the attached examples:

7) This is half a circle together with two triangles. Or, the two triangles can be considered to be a rectangle with a triangular cutout.

The area is the sum of the areas of the semicircle and the rectangle, less the area of the triangular cutout.

__

8) This can be considered as a square with a square cutout. The area is the difference between the area of the larger square and the area of the smaller one. Alternatively, one can find the area by finding the length of the centerline of the shaded area and multiplying that by the width of the shaded area.

__

9) The area of this figure can be considered to be the total of the area of the bottom rectangle and the top triangle. Alternatively, one can cut the figure into two trapezoids (with a vertical line) and sum their areas.

Let U = {a, b, c, e, d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k}; A = {a, b, e, f, h, j}; B = {b, c, d, f, j}. Draw a Venn Diagram with a rectangle
marishachu [46]
<h3>Answer: Venn Diagram is below</h3>

The rectangle represents the universal set (marked as "set U"). Everything is contained in this rectangle.

Circle A represents set A = {a, b, e, f, h, j}

Circle B represents set B = {b, c, d, f, j}

The common elements between the two sets are {b, f, j}, so we'll write these three values in the overlapping portion of the two circles.

The items {a,e,h} will go in circle A, but not in the overlapping portion since they are found only in set A.

Similarly we'll have {c,d} go in circle B but not in the overlapping portion since these items are only found in set B.

The remaining terms {g, i, k} go outside both circles, but inside the rectangle, because neither of these elements are in set A or set B.

ratelena [41]
Given:
2002 sold 1000 paperback books and 1500 hardback books for a total of 2,500 books.

2003 sold 15% more paperback books and 5% more hardback books.
1000 x 1.15 = 1,150 paperbacks
1500 x 1.05 = 1,575 hardbacks

1150 + 1575 = 2,725

2,725 - 2,500 = 225
225 / 2,500 = 0.09
0.09 x 100% = 9%  choice C
