Length = 2x - 5

Width = x

Perimeter = 146

P = 2L + 2W

146 = 2(2x - 5) + 2x

146 = 4x - 10 + 2x

146 = 6x - 10

146 + 10 = 6x

156 = 6x

156/6 = x

26 = x

Length = 2(26) - 5

Length = 52 - 5

Length = 47 cm

Width = x

Width = 26 cm

Answer:

The area of figure is 420 000 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

You can seperate the diagram into 2 parts, top is trapezium and bottom is rectangle. Then you have to use the formula for each part :

Trapezium,

A =  \frac{1}{2}  \times (a + b) \times height

Let a = 600 ft,

Let b = 900 ft,

Let height = 200 ft,

A =  \frac{1}{2}  \times (600 + 900) \times 200

A = 150 \: 000 \:  \:  \:  {feets}^{2}

Rectangle,

A = base \times height

Let base = 900 ft,

Let height = 300 ft,

A = 900 \times 300

A = 270 \: 000 \:  \:  \:  {feets}^{2}

Lastly, you have add both areas together :

A = 150000 + 270000

A = 420 \: 000 \:  \:  \:  {feets}^{2}

A student read 3 000 146 as "three thousand one hundred forty-six." how do you explain the students error
Mumz [18]
The digit 3 is in the millions place value, hence it is worth three million, not three thousand.
Therefore, 3,000,146 should be read as three million, one hundred and forty-six, and NOT three thousand, one hundred and forty-six.
Hope this answer helps you! If it did, please mark it as the brainiest! I would really appreciate it! :)
