Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the length of Zach's car
y ----> the length of Ginny's car
we know that
The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches
so
----> equation A
Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A
First symmetrically cut the octagon to get 8 pieces. (So that you will get the idea that this polygon is divided into 8 triangles)
Then find the area of one of the triangles:
Area of Triangle =
A = × 12 × 19
A = 114 cm²
To find the area of the whole octagon shape:
A = 114 × 8 = 912 cm²
