You can divide the figure as follows:
- A vertical rectangle, 5 meters tall and 2 meters wide, on the top right.
- A horizontal rectangle, 2 meters tall and 5 meters wide, on the bottom left
- A 2x2 meters square on the bottom right, where the two rectangles meet.
The area of the rectangles is 5x2=10 meters squared, while the area of the square is 2x2=4 meters squared.
So, the total area is 10+4=14 meters squared.
So Sahra is 3 times as old as her daugter. That means that the sum of their age is the daughters age times 4.
We can prove that by saying the daughters age is x. Sahra's age must be 3x. Their sum must be x+3x = 4x.
So to get the daughters age we divide the sum by 4, which is 8.
4$ would be the cost of the item
My answer -
-5x^3+4x^2-5x

Have an AWESOME!!! LBGT Day :)
