Answer:
13 pencils.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the pens and y be the pencils
Given:
Brian purchased pens for 75 cents each and pencils for 40 cents each he bought total of 22 writing utensils for $11.95.
Total pens and pencils is 22
So,
----------------(1)
And he bought all utensils for $11.95. and each pen for 75 cents and pencils for 40 cents.
------------(2)
solve equation 1 and equation 2 for x and y.
From equation 1.

----------------(3)
put y value in equation 2.







Now substitute x value in equation 3.


So, he buy 13 pencils.
The figure is the combination of trapezoid and square. Then the area of the figure will be 39 square meters.
The complete question is attached below.
<h3>What is Geometry?</h3>
It deals with the size of geometry, region, and density of the different forms both 2D and 3D.
The figure is the combination of trapezoid and square.
Then the area of the geometry will be
Area = Area of trapezoid + Area of square
Area = 1/2 x (3 + 9) x 5 + 3 x 3
Area = 30 + 9
Area = 39 square meters
