Answer:
7 x 4 = 28
28 x 1/2(dividing by 2) = 14, 14 x 2(two triangles) = 28
4 x 5 = 20(area of square in the middle)
5 x 8 = 40(area of square on one side), 40 x 2 = 80(area of squares on both sides)
Now lets add the given areas:
28 + 20 + 80 = 128 square is your answer.
Answer:
a=-8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
(-1/2a-5)=3a+1
To find the opposite of 1/2 a−5, find the opposite of each term.
-1/2a-(-5)= -3a+1
The opposite of −5 is 5.
-1/2a+5=-3a+1
add 3a to both sides
-1/2a+5+3a=1
Combine-1/2and 3a to get 5/2a
5/2a+5=1
Subtract 5 from both side
5/2a=1-5
Subtract 5 from 1 to get −4.
5/2a=-4
Multiply both sides by 2/5 =0.4, the reciprocal of 5/2=2.5.
a=-4x(2/5)
express -4x(2/5)=1.6 as single fraction.
a= -4x2/5
Multiply −4 and 2 to get −8.
a=-8/5
Fraction −8/5 ≈−1.6 can be rewritten as −8/5 =−1.6 by extracting the negative sign.
a=-8/5
Answer:
3x+5 ????
Step-by-step explanation:
So they tell you to let x represent the cost of Deandra's sofa. So since Selena's sofa costs 30 dollars LESS than HALF the cost of Deandra's, we know we have to divide by 2 and subtract 30.
The equation would be x/2-30. (B)
