I think its C but I'm not 100% sure
Answer:
4x +y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are the negative reciprocals of one another. When the equation of the line is written in standard form like this, the equation of the perpendicular line can be written by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. Doing this much would give you ...
4x +y = (constant)
Note that we have chosen to make the equation read 4x+y, not -4x-y. The reason is that "standard form" requires the leading coefficient to be positive.
Now, you just need to make sure the constant is appropriate for the point you want the line to go through. So, it needs to be ...
4(2) +(-5) = constant = 3
The line of interest has equation ...
4x + y = 3
We would divide the shape into a rectangle and a trapezium
The rectangle is of length, 24.5 ft and width 10.75 ft
Area = 24.5 * 10.75 = 263.375 square feet.
Trapezium : Parallel sides are 18.5 ft and 24.5 ft
Height: 12 - 10.75 = 1.25ft
Area of Trapezium = (1/2)*(Sum of Parallel sides)*height
= 1/2 * (18.5+24.5)* 1.25
= 1/2 * 43* 1.25 = 26.875
Total Area = Area of Rectangle + Area of Trapezium
= 263.375 + 26.875 = 290.25
Area = 290.25 ft² (D)
17.6 is your answer
Hope this helps!!
