First you have to put all of your common numbers together. 4a and 9a go together. You then subtract those because 9 is negative (-9). Then you get -5a. Now move on to your other numbers. You have 26 and 17. 17 is negative as well (-17), so you subtract it from 26. That gives you 9.
Your new equation is -5a + 9 = 26
Now you subtract 9 from both sides. Your positive (+9) will cancel out with your negative (-9). Then subtract it from 26. 9 minus 26 is 17.
Now your equation is -5a = 17
Since it's negative, you're going to add it (5) to both sides.
Your 5's cancel out, and 17 + 5 is 22.
a = 22
22 is the answer
Four sided figure is a quadrilateral
Answer:
13 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The bounding rectangle is 4 units wide and 5 units high, so has an area of 4×5 = 20 square units. From that are subtracted the areas of 4 triangles. 2 of them are 3 wide and 1 high, so have a combined area of 3×1 = 3 square units. The other two are 1 wide and 4 high, so have a combined area of 1×4 = 4 square units.
Then the area of the parallelogram is ...
20 -3 -4 = 13 . . . . square units
We have the area of the base of a triangular prism= a*b
the volume of triangular prism =a*b*c( where c is the height) so that 210=a*b*14 ==> 210= base area*14==> base area= 210/14
