Both triangles area:
4.2 x 8.2 = 34.44
you don’t need to divide by two cause there’s two triangles anyways.
also, you get 8.2 by subtracting the total length by the top length. (13.5-5.3)
rectangle:
4.2 x 5.3 = 22.26
the total area is 56.7cm squared
You know you need to rename a mixed number to subtract when the numbers involved have different denominators. In such a case. The lowest common multiple of the denominators will be calculated subsequent used to adequately rename the mixed numbers before subtraction can be done
(f o g)(x)
g(x) = x + 2
Since it’s telling you to use g(x), you use (x + 2) as your new x value for function f.
f(x + 2) = 5(x + 2) + 5
= 5x + 10 + 5
= 5x + 15
