These are the steps:
1. Find the area of the trapezium {Whole figure).
2. FInd the area of the rectangle (unshaded).
3. Area of the shaded = Area of trapezium - Area of the rectangle.

Step 1: Find the area of the trapezium:

Formula : Area of trapezium = 1/2 (a + b)h

Area = 1/2 ( 25 + 15) (12) = 240 yd²

Step 2 : Find the area of the rectangle:

Formula : Area = Length x Width

Area = 12 x 3 = 36 yd²

Step 3: Find the shaded region:

240 - 36 = 204 yd²

Answer: 204 yd²

Mrac [35]

For this case we can model the problem as a rectangle triangle.
We have:
Length of the sides of the triangle.
We want to find:
Length of the hypotenuse.
Using the Pythagorean theorem we have:
$d ^ 2 = 2 ^ 2 + 2 ^ 2
$
$d = \sqrt{2 ^ 2 + 2 ^ 2} 

d = \sqrt{4 + 4} 

d = \sqrt{8} 

d = 2\sqrt{2} 
$
Answer:
She is:
$d = 2\sqrt{2}$
miles far from her starting point

krok68 [10]

The sum of 12 and a number
(12 + n)

is no greater
< =

then the sum of twice the number and 8
(2n +(-8)) = (2n - 8)

so we have :
(12 + n) < = (2n - 8)
