Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
9/15 = 3/x
x = 5
2n=14 n being the “number” divide 2 on both sides and you’re left w n=14/2 or7
Remember that the slope of a line never changes, so you can choose whatever 2 points you want and you will always get the same slope. Calculate the rise and run (You can draw it on the graph if it helps). The slope is 2/4, which , of course, you can simplify to ½.
A)
It looks like the [irregular] hexagon has 3 rectangles and 2 triangles within it.
So let's exclude the triangular corners on bottom left and top right for now.
First we have a large rectangle covering most of the upper left of the polygon. 20 ft × 7 ft = 140 sq.ft.
Now we have a rectangle on the bottom right. The width is 11 ft, so take the 7 away from that, 4 ft. × 14 ft. on bottom. 4 ft × 14 ft = 56 sq.ft.
The last small rectangle fits on the right between the 2 other rectangles. It is 24-20 on top/bottom × 7-6 right/left. 4 ft × 1 ft = 4 sq.ft.
Now for the triangles: bottom left is 11-7 × 24-14 = 4 ft × 10 ft. 1/2bh = 1/2×10×4 = 20 sq.ft.
Top right is 24-20 × 11-5 = 4 ft × 6 ft. 1/2bh = 1/2×4×6 = 12 sq.ft.
B)
Add them all together for the total area (A):
A = 140 + 56 + 4 + 20 + 12 = 140+60+32
= 232 sq.ft.
Hope that explains it well enough! ;)
