Given:
The algebra tiles of an equation.
To find:
The equation represented by the given model.
Solution:
On the left side of the model we have 4 tiles of (-x) and 3 tiles of (-1). So,
On the right side of the model we have 8 tiles of (-1). So,
Now, equate the LHS and RHS to get the equation.
Therefore, the equation for the given model is .
9514 1404 393
Answer:
153 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is drawn in the attachment with some lengths and points labeled.
The figure can be considered to have an area that is the sum of the areas of rectangle ABFE and triangle FGH, with the area of triangle BCD subtracted.
That area is ...
A = area(ABFE) +area(FGH) -area(BCD)
= (15)(9) +(1/2)(9)(6) -(1/2)(6)(3)
= 135 +27 -9 = 153 . . . square units
