Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, x +1, x + 2, x + 3 be four consecutive integers.

\therefore \: x + x +1 +  x + 2 +  x + 3 = 74 \\  \therefore \: 4x + 6 = 74 \\  \therefore \: 4x = 74 - 6 \\  \therefore \: 4x = 68 \\  \therefore \: x =  \frac{68}{4}  \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{x = 17}}

Hence, first integer is 17.

Answer:

165 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to break the figure into 2 parts

We have the square at the bottom right

The square is 5 by 5

A = 5*5 = 25

The rectangle is then 20 by (12-5) =7

The area of the rectangle is

A = 20 *7 = 140

Add the areas together

140+ 25

165 ft^2
