Use the formula for the area of a parallelogram:

\sf A=bh

Plug in what we know:

\sf A=(7\dfrac{1}{2})(5\dfrac{2}{7})

Convert both of them into improper fractions. We do this by multiplying the denominator to the whole number, adding it to the numerator, which becomes our new numerator, and we keep the denominator the same:

\sf A=(\dfrac{15}{2})(\dfrac{37}{7})

Now multiply the numerators and denominators together:

\sf A=\dfrac{15}{2}\cdot\dfrac{37}{7}\rightarrow\dfrac{15\cdot 37}{2\cdot 7}\rightarrow\dfrac{555}{14}

Convert it back into a mixed number. 14 goes into 555 thirty-nine times. 14 * 39 = 546. 555 - 546 = 9. So we have 39 wholes and 9 left over, or:

\sf 39\dfrac{9}{14}

So this is the area of the parallelogram.

All angles of a triangle have to equal 180 degrees. The top and bottom triangle are the same. So the first angle tells you 32 degrees. The second one has a little square which means 90 degrees. So 180 - 32 - 90 = 58.
So the angle A is 58. Since the top triangle and bottom triangle have the same angle measurement then angle C = 58 degrees.

A= l*w
168= 14*w

Divide both sides by 14
168/14= 14w/14
12=w

Final answer: 12 ft (I'm not sure if you meant to switch the order of b and c).

1) Answer: 21
As y varies directly with x, this means that the ratio y/x is always a constant.
In other words, the equation can be written as y = kx, where k is a constant term.

Thus, -\frac{14}{4} = -\frac{y}{6}
y = 21

2) Answer: C
Exactly the same process as above.
Here's another method:
25 = k(140)
k = 25/140 = 5/28

Thus, when y = 36, 36 = kx
36 = 5/28(x)
36 * 28/5 = x; x = 201.6

3) 9 = k(12)
9/12 = k and k = 3/4

4) On the graph, it hits y = 1 at x = 4.
Thus, we can rewrite the equation as:
y = (1/4)x, where the constant term is 1/4

5) y = kx
The distance represents the x-ordinates, and the time represents the y-ordinates.

9.5/475 = 0.02
4 = 0.02(x), in hours.
x = 200 miles.
