Answer:
C) 40.5 square units
the area of the kite iss 36 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
let the numbers be x and y
x + y = 1600 ----*
12%x = 20%y
0.12x = 0.2y
y = <u>0</u><u>.</u><u>1</u><u>2</u><u>x</u>
0.2
y = 0.6x
substitute in * eqn
x + 0.6x = 1600
1.6x = 1600
x = 1000
then,
y = 0.6*1000
y = 600
the numbers are 1000 and 600
