Need to know the area of the composite figure.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Deffense [45]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  51 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area is the difference between the area of the overall figure and that of the rectangular cutout.

The applicable formulas are ...

  area of a triangle:

     A = (1/2)bh

  area of a rectangle:

     A = bh

  area of a trapezoid:

     A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

___

We note that the area of a triangle depends only on the length of its base and its height. The actual shape does not matter. Thus, we can shift the peak of the triangular portion of the shape (that portion above the top horizontal line) so that it lines up with one vertical side or the other of the figure. That makes the overall shape a trapezoid with bases 16 m and 10 m. The area of that trapezoid is then ...

  A = (1/2)(16 m + 10 m)(5 m) = 65 m^2

The area of the white internal rectangle is ...

  A = (2 m)(7 m) = 14 m^2

So, the shaded area is the difference:

  65 m^2 -14 m^2 = 51 m^2 . . . . shaded area of the composite figure

_____

<em>Alternate approach</em>

Of course, you can also figure the area by adding the area of the triangular "roof" to the area of the larger rectangle, then subtracting the area of the smaller rectangle. Using the above formulas, that approach gives ...

  (1/2)(5 m)(16 m - 10 m) + (5 m)(10 m) - (2 m)(7 m) = 15 m^2 + 50 m^2 -14 m^2

  = 51 m^2

Solve the equation -3k+6=15
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

K= -3

Step-by-step explanation:

-3k+6=15

     -6   -6

-3k=9

/-3  /-3

k=-3

subtract 6 from both sides.

divide each side by -3 to get K alone

Can someone please help me
Natalija [7]
ANSWER: $84

EXPLANATION:

We need to know the surface area of the room with the specified dimensions.

A = 2(wl + hl + hw)

w = 12
h = 8
l = 16

A = 2( (12 * 16) + (8 * 16) + (12 * 8) )

A = 2(192 + 128 + 96)

A = 2(416)

A = 832 square feet


832 / 150 = 5.546666666666667

(Round that up to the next whole number)

You need 6 gallons, or 6(14) dollars

Harper is knitting a scarf for her cousin's birthday. She plans to knit every night, making the scarf 5 centimeters longer each
MissTica

The equation that shows the relationship between x and y is:

y = 5x

A linear equation is in the form:

y = mx + b

where m is the rate of change and b is the initial value of y, y, x are variables.

Let x represent the number of nights knitting and y represent the length of the scarf.

The equation that shows the relationship between x and y is:

y = 5x
