Answer:
Area of the figure = 200 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangle A = Length × Width
= 5×9
= 45 cm²
Area of rectangle B = 5 × 11
= 55 cm²
Area of rectangle C = 5 × 9
= 45 cm²
Area of rectangle D = 5 × 7
= 35 cm²
Area of rectangle E = 10 × 2
= 20 cm²
Total area of the figure = 45 + 55 + 45 + 35 + 20
= 200 cm²
So you know that:
2x+y=14+y
and
5x-y=x+13y
Here you have two equations with two unknown variables:
If you isolate x from the second equations you get:
x=(7/2)y
Insert that in the first equations and solve for y:
2*(7/2)y+y=14+y
y=2
Insert that value for y in one of the two equations (i chose the first):
2x+2=14+2
x=7
Therefore x=7
Hope that helped.
Actually you could start with isolating x, and then insert that in one of the two equations.
