Answer:

y = 17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx

→ Substitute in the values

5 = 2k

→ Divide both sides by 2 to isolate k

k = 2.5

⇒ y = 2.5x

→ Substitute in x = 7

y = 2.5x ⇔ y = 2.5 × 7 ⇔ y = 17.5

erma4kov [3.2K]

1/6 because you are breaking something into 6 and you got to share think of it like that so you get a smaller piece than you cutting it into 1/5...... so the answer is 1/6

Find the area of the shape shown below.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

The area of the figure is 28 units².

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of the full rectangle, ignoring the triangle.

$a = lw \\ a = 4 \times 8 = 32$

Then, find the area of the triangle:

$a = \frac{bh}{2} \\ a = \frac{2 \times 4}{2} \\ a = 4$

Finally, subtract:

$32 - 4 = 28$
