Answer:
A = 5x + 12 (See explanation!)
Step-by-step explanation:
So, this "polygon" is really just two rectangles combined! With that in mind, remember that the area of a rectangle is base*height. Now, apply that to the problem. We know that the total length of the bottom base is 7, and 5 is the length of the second rectangle's base, so the 1st rectangle's base must be 7 - 5 = 2. The area of the 1st rectangle is then 6*2 = 12. The second rectangle's area is 5*x. So, if the area of the polygon is the sum of the two rectangles' areas, the expression you could use is:
5*x + 6* 2 = A
Simplify/Rewrite:
A = 5x + 12
(A is area, x is the unknown length in the diagram)

Answer:
6/10 = 0.6
Step-by-step explanation:
apples and oranges are different fruits but they are fruit. So, we have 10 fruit in the box
and question wants to pick an orange
formula = all oranges/ all fruits
6/10 = 0.6

Answer:
Each area is equal to half the area of ABCD
Step-by-step explanation:
AX ≅ CY
In parallelogram, opposite sides are equal.
AB = CD
AX + XB = CY + YD
CY + XB = CY + YD
XB = CY + YD - CY
XB = CY
Both trapezoids have equal area
Area of AXYD + area of BXYC = area of ABCD
