1 answer:

5 0

Regular shapes are shapes that have sides that are all equal and interior angles are also equal.

Irregular shapes are shapes that vary in the measurement of sides and interior angles.

To find the area of an irregular shape, break it down into various regular shape and individually compute its area. Add up all the area of the regular shapes formed from the irregular shape to get the area of the irregular shape.

An example of an irregular shape is the outline of a house.

Pointed roof over a square room. There are two regular shapes found in this irregular shape. A square and a triangle. Compute its individual area and add up these two areas to get the area of the house.

Factor completely<br> B. (x+5)²-2(x+5)-24<br> C. (x+2)²-8(x+2)+15<br> D. 2(2x-1)²-9(2x-1)+4

Sladkaya [172]

B.
${x}^{2} + 10x + 25 - 2x - 10 - 24 = \\ x {}^{2} + 8x - 9 = \\ (x - 1)(x + 9)$

C.
${x}^{2} + 4x +4 - 8x - 16 + 15 = \\ x {}^{2} - 4x + 3 = \\ (x - 3)(x - 1)$
D.
$2( {4x}^{2} - 4x + 1) - 18x + 9 + 4 = \\ 8x {}^{2} - 8x + 2 - 18x + 13 = \\ 8x {}^{2} - 26x + 15$

Several paint mixtures are made by mixing blue paint and white paint. Paint Colors Blue Paint White Paint Mixture A 5 cups 12 cu

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The mixture C is the correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given scenario, the calculation is as follows:

For Mixture A

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

The ratio between them is 5:12

For Mixture B

Blue Paint - 6 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

The ratio between them is 6:6 = 12:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

For Mixture C

Blue Paint - 4 cups

White Paint - 12 cups

The ratio between them is 4:12

For Mixture D

Blue Paint - 5 cups

White Paint - 6 cups

The ratio between them is 5:6 = 10:12

It came by multiply the numerator and denominator by 12

As it can be seen that in all four mixtures the denominator is the same so for calculating the lowest ratio we have to see the small value in the numerator

As it can be seen that there is a small value of 4

hence, the mixture C is the correct option
