What is the area of the polygon in square units? <br><br>​
prisoha [69]

Answer:

  (d)  80 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

As with many composite area problems, this can be worked any of several ways. The attached shows trapezoid ABCE, from which triangle CDE can be removed to get the desired area.

The relevant formulas are ...

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h . . . . . . area of a trapezoid

  A= (1/2)bh . . . . . . . . . . . . area of a triangle

__

Here, the trapezoid has bases 12 and 2, and height 12, so its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(12 +2)(12) = 84 . . . . square units

The triangle has a base of 4 and a height of 2, so its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(4)(2) = 4 . . . . square units

Then the area of the desired figure is ...

  84 - 4 = 80 . . . . square units

|3x+12|

one is as it is                                     one is the negative value of it

3x + 12                                                   - (3x + 12)

Mr. Rogers has $4.62. He has 3 times as many dimes as nickels and 6 more pennies than dimes. How many coins of each kind does he
Marysya12 [62]
Let’s make x = # of nickels. Then 3x = # of dimes and 3x+6 = # of pennies. A nickel is 5 cents, a dime is 10 cents and a penny is 1 cent.

The money she has should be .05(x) + .10(3x) + .01(3x+6) = 4.62 or to make it simpler: 5(x) + 10(3x) + 1(3x+6) = 462.

5x + 30x + 3x + 6 = 462

38x + 6 = 462

38x = 456

x = 12.

So she has 12 nickels (12 * $0.05 = $0.60), 36 dimes (36 * $0.10 = $3.60) and 42 pennies (42 * $0.01 = $0.42). $3.60 + $0.60 + $0.42 = $4.62.
