Answer:
1 / We have the area of a rectangle ABCD = 8 x 16 = 128 ft²
2 / Find the area of an isosceles Δ DEF:
The base of the isosceles ΔDEF => DF = DC- FC = 16 -12 = 4 ft
So the area of Δ DEF = 1/2 (DF x EH) = 1/2 (4 x 6) = 12 ft²
3 / Area of the irregular shape = area ABCB + Area DEF = 128 + 12 = 140 ft²

After the 15% discount, Maria pays 85% of the cost. That cost is the sum of the fixed cost and the variable (per visit) cost.
... (updated cost) = 0.85×($150 +$30×a)
... (updated cost) = 127.50 +25.50a . . . . in dollars

≥-4
Pretend the greater than or equal to sign is an equal sign, we will substitute it back in later.
x/2 = -4
Multiply both sides by 2 to get x alone
x = -8
Substitute the greater than or equal to sign back in and voila!
x≥-8
