What is the approximate area of the figure?
1 answer:
Option D:
The approximate area of the figure is 109.6 square feet.
Solution:
The figure is splitted into three shapes.
One is rectangle and the other two is semi-circles.
Diameter of the semi-circle = 5 feet
Radius of the semi-circle = 5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 feet
Area of the semi-circle =
Area of the semi-circle = 9.8 square feet
Area of 2 semi-circles = 2 × 9.8
Area of 2 semi-circles = 19.6 square feet
Length of the rectangle = 18 feet
Width of the rectangle = 5 feet
Area of the rectangle = length × width
= 18 × 5
Area of the rectangle = 90 square feet
Area of the figure = Area of 2 semi-circles + Area of the rectangle
= 19.6 square feet + 90 square feet
= 109.6 square feet
The approximate area of the figure is 109.6 square feet.
Hence Option D is the correct answer.

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
For 11 1/2 gallons, he paid $36.80.
We need to find the cost per gallon.
First, converting 11 1/2 gallons to decimal, it is:
1/2 = 0.5
So, 11 1/2 is 11.5 gallons
So, Cost Per Gallon (last week) =
There is 5% increase on this $3.20 per gallon. We find 5% of 3.2 and add it to 3.2 to find this week's cost per gallon.
<em>5% = 5/100 = 0.05</em>
<em>0.05 * 3.20 = 0.16</em>
<em>So,</em>
<em>3.20 + 0.16 = $3.36 per gallon</em>
<em />
Cost Per Gallon (this week) = $3.36
To buy 9 1/4 gallons it would take:
<u>Note:</u> 1/4 = 0.25, so 9 1/4 = 9.25
It would cost $31.08 to buy 9.25 gallons this week
Correct answer is B
