Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the age of the youngest sister. Since the ages are consecutive odd integers, the next sister's age is n+2, and the oldest sister is n+4. the following equation represents the relationship between the girls' ages.

n + 3(n + 4) = 5(n + 2) - 5

n + 3n + 12 = 5n + 10 - 5

4n + 12 = 5n +5

-4n  -5      -4n -5

7 = n

so the sisters are 7, 9, and 11

Answer:

  • draw lines center to vertex
  • 43.5 square inches
  • 261 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part A</u>:

The area can be decomposed into triangles by drawing a line from the center to each vertex of the hexagon.

__

<u>Part B</u>:

The area of each triangle is given by the triangle area formula:

  A = (1/2)bh

  A = (1/2)(10 in)(8.7 in) = 43.5 in²

__

<u>Part C</u>:

The area of the table top is 6 times the area of one triangle:

  surface area = 6(43.5 in²) = 261 in²
