Answer:
The third option with the decimal on top as a fraction
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
For every 3 cups she need 7 cups of white paint.
answer a displays that with 3*2=6 and 7*2=14
The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15

The whole ends up being 42 ft².
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height.
So that lil triangle piece is 1/2 * 2 * 3 = 1/2 * 6 = 3
Now we do the rectangle piece. Area of a rectangle = length * width
So that rectangle is 3 * 7 = 21
If you take away those two, you are left with a trapezoid.
Area of a trapezoid is 1/2 * (base 1 + base 2) * height
Base 1 is the width of the rectangle which is 3. Base 2 is the 6. The height is the given 11 feet minus the 7 feet from the length of the rectangle which is 4.
Plug all this in to the formula you get 1/2 * (6 + 3) * 4 = 1/2 * 9 * 4 = 1/2 * 36 = 18.
Now add all of your areas together;
21 + 3 + 18 = 24 + 18 = 42
