Answer:

249 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem becomes easier if we subdivide the figure, find the areas of the resulting figures and then sum them up.

Draw a vertical line straight down from the edge marked "4 cm" towards the edge marked "18 cm." The resulting rectangle on the left is 15.5 cm long and (18 - 7.5) cm wide, or 15.5 by 10.5 cm. Its area is 162.75 cm^2.

Next, find the area of the rectangle on the right of the line we drew. Its width is 7.5 cm and its height (15.5 - 4) cm, resulting in an area of 86.25 cm^2.

Last, add together these two subareas: combine 86.25 cm^2 and 162.75 cm^2. The total area of the composite figure is then 249 cm^2 (answer).

A population of rabbits doubles evey 4 months. if the population starts out with 8 rabbits how many rabbits will there be in 1 y

Arlecino [84]

Well. You start with two rabbits, and it triples every month, so:

0 months: 2 rabbits.
1 month: 2*3 = 6 rabbits.
2 months: 6*3 = 18 rabbits.
3 months: 18*3 = 54 rabbits.

Use properties of equality to Solve 7+3x = 5x+13 for x

mario62 [17]

We basically have to cancel values on both sides until they are both on common ground.

7 + 3x = 5x + 13

-7 from both sides...

3x = 5x + 6

-5x from both sides...

-2x = 6

/-2 from both sides...

x = -3

Hope this helps!

Please help

Answer:

M = 2x² - (ax/3) + by

B = - 3x²y + (xy³/3) - cy

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation 1 is

2x² - (1/3)ax + by - M = 0

M = 2x² - (ax/3) + by

Equation 2

3x²y - (1/3)xy³ + cy + B = 0

B = - 3x²y + (xy³/3) - cy

Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

(1)

Here m = 6 and b = - 2, then

y = 6x - 2

(2)

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

Here m = - 2 and b = 5, then

y = - 2x + 5 ← equation in slope- intercept form

Add 2x to both sides

2x + y = 5 ← equation in standard form

(3)

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (6, - 13) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, - 3)

m = $\frac{-3+13}{-4-6}$ = $\frac{10}{-10}$ = - 1 , then

y = - x + b ← is the partial equation

To find b substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 4, - 3 ) , then

- 3 = 4 + b ⇒ b = - 3 - 4 = - 7

y = - x - 7 ← equation in slope- intercept form

Add x to both sides

x + y = - 7 ← equation in standard form
