Yea. The text book is either wrong or it knows something that we don't. Like as to why they would need to have two more feet. You're right though
Answer:
4925cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
whole thing - small thing = shaded
small = 25 x 25 = 625
whole thing = a+b / 2 x h = 111+111/2 x 50 = 5550
5550-625= 4925cm^2
Just divide 92 by 6 it gives you 15.33333
You will have 2 equations.
30x+20y=1100
and
x+y=45
by putting it into standard form
-(30/20)x+55=y
you can now solve finding the answer to be 20 for x and 25 for y.
Plug it into the original equation to find it correct and then plug it into x+y
20+25=45
30*20+25*20=1100
I believe its 2 nut only if the triangle is up to scale <span />
