Answer:

36 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, I first construct a line. (shown in yellow in the first photo)

I then find the area of the top rectangle. (6 cm * 4 cm = 24 cm squared.)

Next, I find the area of the lower rectangle. But...to do that I have to find the length of the line that I constructed. To do this, I do 6cm-2cm=4cm.

Then I can find the area of the lower rectangle. (4cm*3cm=12cm squared.)

add up the area of both of the rectangles and.........12+24=36 cm squared

How do you write an equation in slope intercept form if the line doesn't cross the y intercept?

Elena-2011 [213]

If the line doesn't cross the y intercept, that means it is parallel to the y intercept. the slope is undefined for a vertical line, the equation is x=a constant. For example, if the line passes (3, 5), then the equation is x=3. If the lines passes (5,3), the equation is x=5

90=3(x+8)+2x-4 what is x

Lilit [14]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

90 = -4 + 2 x + 3 (x + 8)

3 (x + 8) = 3 x + 24:

90 = 3 x + 24 + 2 x - 4

Grouping like terms, 3 x + 2 x - 4 + 24 = (2 x + 3 x) + (-4 + 24):

90 = (2 x + 3 x) + (-4 + 24)

2 x + 3 x = 5 x:

90 = 5 x + (-4 + 24)

24 - 4 = 20:

90 = 5 x + 20

90 = 5 x + 20 is equivalent to 5 x + 20 = 90:

5 x + 20 = 90

Subtract 20 from both sides:

5 x + (20 - 20) = 90 - 20

20 - 20 = 0:

5 x = 90 - 20

90 - 20 = 70:

5 x = 70

Divide both sides of 5 x = 70 by 5:

(5 x)/5 = 70/5

5/5 = 1:

x = 70/5

The gcd of 70 and 5 is 5, so 70/5 = (5×14)/(5×1) = 5/5×14 = 14:

Answer: x = 14
