We can easily break this down into four triangles.  There will be one on the top right, bottom left and also in opposite corners.  Using the formula A = 1/2bh, we can find that the area of the four triangles are 1120, 2063, 16091 and 21689. If we add up the area of the four triangles, we get 1120 + 2063 + 18091 + 21689 = 42963 ft^2.  Since the total cost $168,240, we know the cost per square foot is 168240/42963 = $3.92.  So in other words, Mr. Hewitt will get his land, but barely.

The sales tax in your city is 8.8%, and an item costs $55 dollars before tax. How much would you pay for that item?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The answer is $ 59.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, I know this is not one of the options, but hear me out:

To find the sales tax for that item, you need to multiply the dollar amount by the sales tax (in percent):

$55 * 8.8% = $4.84

So the sales tax is $4.84.  However, the question asks "How much would you pay for that item?", not what the sales tax is.  So I would solve this problem by adding the sales tax to the dollar amount of the item:

$55 + $4.84 = $ 59.84

If you are able to write or type your answer, I would type $ 59.84. If you can only select one of the given values, then I would suggest going with             A: $ 4.84 just because its the only number that is actually relevant at all to the problem.

Answer:

The slope is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1 }{x_2 - x_1}

Let's plug in!

m = \frac{ 9 - 4}{4 - ( -1)} = \frac{ 5}{ 5} = 1
