Find the are of the SHADED region.
Mazyrski [523]
First find the area of the parallelogram


Area of parallelogram = b x h
= 12 x 7
= 84

Then find area of kite

Area of kite = (xy)/2
= (7 x 12)/2
= 84/2
= 42

Now we are gonna subtract the area of the kite from the area of the parallelogram.

84 - 42 = 42

Therefore the area of the shaded region is 42.

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

m 1 = 45 degrees because 1 and the angle measuring 135 degrees are supplementary angles.

m 2 = 95 degrees because 2 and the angle measuring 95 degrees are vertical angles.

m 3 = 40 degrees because 1, 2, and 3 form a triangle

A new photocopier works 4 times as fast as an old one. When the machines work together, a university can produce all its staff m
Usimov [2.4K]

The old photocopier can make x manuals in an hour. The new photocopier can make 4x. Combined, they made 5x manuals in an hour.

In one hour they can make 1/28 of the manuals.

1/(28*5)=1/140 is the rate.

The new photocopier can make all the manuals in 4/140 or 35 hours.

The old one can make them in 140 hours.

6 people consists of 3 married couples. Each couple wants to sit with older partner on the left.
Lera25 [3.4K]

a. The first part asks for how many ways they can be seated together in a row. Therefore we want the permutations of the set of 6 people, or 6 factorial,

6! = 6 * 5

= 30 * 4

= 360 * 2 = 720 possible ways to order 6 people in a row

b. There are two cases to consider here. If the doctor were to sit in the left - most seat, or the right - most seat. In either case there would be 5 people remaining, and hence 5! possible ways to arrange themselves.

5! = 5 * 4

= 20 * 3

= 120 * 1 = 120 possible ways to arrange themselves if the doctor were to sit in either the left - most or right - most seat.

In either case there are 120 ways, so 120 + 120 = Total of 240 arrangements among the 6 people if the doctor sits in the aisle seat ( leftmost or rightmost seat )

c. With each husband on the left, there are 3 people left, all women, that we have to consider here.

3!  = 3 * 2 6 ways to arrange 3 couples in a row, the husband always to the left
