Easy
the easiest way is to imagine that you have a rectangle with a corner cut off
the area of the figure=area of rectangle-area cut off
area that was cut off was a triangle
area of rectangle=length times width
area of triangle=1/2base times height
so we draw imaginary lines like in attachment
find area of rectangle
legnth=9 inch
width=9 inch
area=9 times 9=81 in^2
triangle
the top part is ?+5=9, so the base of triangle=4
the side is ?+4=9, so the base is 5
area=1/2 times 4 times 5=10 in^2
area=rectangle-triangle
area=81-10=71 in^2
Answer: speed is 540 km/h
Step-by-step explanation: Lets mark speed as v.
Because distenace is same, you can mark 6 h · 900 km/h = 10 h · v
and v = 5400 km / 10 h = 540 km/h.
Or using inverse proportions : 10 h / 6 h = v / 900 km/h .
Before multiplying you turn lastproportion around :
10 h / 6 h = 600 km/ h / v ,which gives 10 v = 6 · 900 km/h
and result is same
If you are asking for an equation for this statement, it would be y = x + 5

- The two areas are the same.
- To find the area, we multiply the side lengths. Y=area
Rectangle 1: side lengths 4 and (x+1)
y=4(x+1)= 4x+4
Rectangle 2: side lengths 3 and (2x-2)
y=3(2x-2)= 6x-6
- Since the two areas are same, we can conclude that
4x+4=6x-6
-2x=-10, x=5
- Since x is 5, we can plug it into the equations to find y.
Option 1 with rectangle 1: y=4(5)+4, y=24
Option 2 with rectangle 2: y=6(5)-5, y=24
