The answer is 7
3x-3=18 (take 3 to the other side to solve for x)
3x=18+3 (3 will be positive)
3x=21 (divide both sides by 3)
x=7
Answer: 1.25 square feet
This converts to the improper fraction 5/4
===========================================================
Explanation:
The area of the triangle on the left is base*height/2 = 0.5*2/2 = 0.5 square feet. Note that 1/2 = 0.5
The area of the triangle on the right side is base*height/2 = 0.2*3/2 = 0.75 square feet. This converts to the fraction 3/4
Add up the two results: 0.5+0.75 = 1.25 square feet
-----------
If you need the answer as an improper fraction, then,
1.25 = 1 + 0.25
1.25 = 1 + 1/4
1.25 = 4/4 + 1/4
1.25 = (4+1)/4
1.25 = 5/4
