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

Solve using quadratic formula<br> 6x^2-x=2

Nadya [2.5K]

$6x^2-x=2\implies 6x^2-1x-2=0 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula} \\\\ \stackrel{\stackrel{a}{\downarrow }}{6}x^2\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{-1}x\stackrel{\stackrel{c}{\downarrow }}{-2}=0 \qquad \qquad x= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}$

$x = \cfrac{ -(-1) \pm \sqrt { (-1)^2 -4(6)(-2)}}{2(6)}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{1+48}}{12} \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{1\pm\sqrt{49}}{12}\implies x = \cfrac{1\pm 7}{12}\implies x = \begin{cases} \frac{8}{12}\to &\frac{2}{3}\\[1em] -\frac{6}{12}\to &-\frac{1}{2} \end{cases}$
