Help please I need to find the area I don’t know how thanks
otez555 [7]

Answer:

49.62

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by dividing the shape into 2 separate rectangles to make calculating the area easier.

9.3 x 2.4 = 22.32

10.5 x 2.6 = 27.3

Then, add the areas of the two separate rectangles to find the total area of the shape.

22.32 + 27.3 = 49.62. Hope that helped

Find the solution to the equation 4r + 2(r - 8) = 4(3 + r).
o-na [289]

Answer:

r = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use distributive property:

4r + 2r - 16 = 12 + 4r

Combine like terms:

6r - 16 = 12 + 4r

Isolate the variable:

6r = 28 + 4r

2r = 28

r = 14

Solve these system of linear equations:
frutty [35]
1.solve for y
 2x+4y=12      
<u>  </u><span><u> -2x       -2x</u>
</span><u>4y</u>=<u>12-2x</u>
<u>4       4</u>
y=3-1/2x

step2 plug in y and solve for x
2x+8y=24
2x+8(3-1/2x)= 24
2x+24-4x=24
<u>-2x</u>=<u>0
</u><u>-2    -2</u>
 x=0
last step plug in x and solve for y

y=3-1/2x(0)
y=3
