Lydia cut out her initial from a piece of construction paper. How many square centimeters of construction paper are used to make Lydia's initial?

A) 10 square centimeters

B) 11 square centimeters

C) 15 square centimeters

D) 22 square centimeters

Solution

From the second attached image, it is evident that we can split the L-shaped figure into two rectangles of dimensions (3 cm by 1 cm) and (7 cm by 1 cm)

The total area of the figure is thus

(3 × 1) + (7 × 1) = 10 cm²

Three Texas drovers met on a highway and began to dicker as follows:

Alik [6]

Answer:

Jim's: 7
Duke's: 21
Hank's: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let J, D, and H represent the drove sizes of Jim, Duke, and Hank.

2(H -6 + 1) = (J +6 -1) . . . . . Hank's offer

3(D -14 +1) = (H +14 -1) . . . . Duke's offer

6(J -4 +1) = (D +4 -1) . . . . . . Jim's offer

These equations can be simplified to ...

2H - J = 15

3D - H = 52

6J - D = 21

<u>Solution</u>

Adding twice the second equation to the first gives ...

2(3D -H) +(2H -J) = 2(52) +(15)

6D -J = 119

Adding 6 times the third equation to this one gives ...

6(6J -D) +(6D -J) = 6(21) +(119)

35J = 245

J = 7

Using this value in the third equation gives ...

6(7) -D = 21

42 -21 = D = 21

Using the value of J in the first equation gives ...

2H -7 = 15

H = (15 +7)/2 = 11

Then the solution is (J, D, H) = (7, 21, 11).

Jim's drove had 7 animals; Duke's drove had 21 animals; Hank's drove had 11 animals.
