The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around. For addition, the rule is "a + b = b + a"; in numbers, this means 2 + 3 = 3 + 2. For multiplication, the rule is "ab = ba"; in numbers, this means 2×3 = 3×2.

What is the area of this figure?

lesantik [10]

Answer:

$\Huge\boxed {A =859ft^{2} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

To solve for the area of this figure we need to split the figure into 3 different parts:

A rectangle with a length of 9 ft and a width of 7 ft

a rectangle with a width of 9ft + 7ft and a length of 25 ft

a rectangle with a width of 18 ft and a length of 22 ft

To find the area of a rectangle we use the formula

$A=w*l$ where w = width and l = length

for the first one we plug in the values

A = 9 * 7

9 * 7 = 63 so the area of the smallest rectangle is 63ft²

Now lets find the area of the larger rectangle

The dimensions are l = 25 ft and w = 9 + 7 (16 ft)

Now we can plug in the values into the area formula

A = 16 * 25

16*25=400 so the area of the larger rectangle is 400 ft²

Now lets find the area of the last rectangle

The dimensions are l = 22 ft and w = 18 ft

now lets plug in the values to the formula

A = 22 * 18 =396

so the area of the last rectangle is 396 ft²

Finally we want to add all of the areas together

396 + 400 + 63 = 859

So the area of the figure is 859 ft²

Answer:

For instance, say you pay $8,000 for goods and sell them for $10,000. Your gross profit is $2,000. Divide this figure by the total revenue to get your gross profit margin: 0.2. Multiply this figure by 100 to get your gross profit margin percentage: 20 percent.
