multiply the 2 numbers together than divide by 2
7 1/2 = 15/2
12 2/3 = 38/3
15/2 * 38/3 = 570/6 =95
95/2=47.5 square feet
Well what were given:
1 inch = 30 feet
The drawing of the building of this problem has the height of 1.25 inches and base of 0.75 inches.
Actual height:
1.25 inches * 30 feet/inch = 37.50 feet
Actual base:
0.75 inches * 30 feet/inch = 22.50 feet
So in this problem the answer would be "A" 22.50 Aka 22.5 For the building. Hope this helps you! (:
Use the equation of -b/2a, so if you have a line you can just plug in the numbers.
