⓵ To calculate the area of a parallelogram, the formula is base times height, just like the formula for the area of a rectangle! Why? Because if you look closely, every parallelogram can be made into a rectangle just by moving one of the triangle parts of it.

⓶ Now that we know that the formula to calculate the area of a parallelogram is :
A = b × h

You need to find the numbers to replace the base and the height in the formula!

We already know that the height is : 12 in.

So we are left with a formula looking like this :

A = b × 12 in.

⓷ Now we need to find the base! To do so, you need to add the height of the rectangle (which is 8 in.) to the height of one of the triangle (which is 16 in.) :

8 in. + 16 in. = b

↓

8 in. + 16 in. = 24 in.

↓

24 in. = b

So we are left with a formula looking like this:

A = 24 in. × 12 in.

⓸ All there’s left to do now, is calculate the area of the parallelogram using the formula :

A = 24 in. × 12 in.

↓

24 in. × 12 in. = 288 in.²

↓

A = 288 in.²

So your final answer is : the area of this parallelogram is ↠ 288 in.²

I really hope this helped, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻

Here's an example

<span>Simplify by collecting like terms: 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 10y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y </span>

<span>Correct. 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5<span>y(3x2 </span>– y) – 10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>28y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 – </span>10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 </span>= −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y </span>

<span>Incorrect. The 4 is distributed to both terms in the parentheses by multiplying each term by 4 resulting in 28y, not 11y. The −5y is similarly distributed to each term in the parentheses, resulting in −15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2. </span>The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

<span>Incorrect. This polynomial can be further simplified by combining the like terms 4<span>x2y </span>and −15<span>yx2. </span>The order of the variables in a term does not matter. The correct answer is </span>

−<span>11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y </span>

<span>Incorrect. Before combining like terms, you must distribute to clear the parentheses. The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

Mike scored a 125 at a semi-final dividing competition season. He scored 95 at this final season. What is the percentage decreas
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

There was a 24% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage decrease = (final season's score - semi-final score) / semi final score x 100

\frac{95-125}{125} ×100

\frac{-30}{125} × 100 = -24%
