The area of the composite figure is 
Explanation:
From the given figure, we can see that the area of the composite figure = area of the rectangle + area of the triangle.
Area of the rectangle
:
The formula is given by

where
and 
Substituting, we have,

Thus, the area of the rectangle = 
Area of the triangle
:
The formula is given by

where 
and 
Substituting, we have,

Thus, the area of the triangle = 
Area of the composite figure = Area of the rectangle + area of the triangle
Area of the composite figure = 
Thus, the area of the composite figure is 
The two end points of our line are (0,2.5) and (5,5.5). to find our slope we need to find our n difference (higher value - lower value) and our C difference (same as n) which would be 5 and 3. now we put our cost difference over our miles difference and get our slope (5/3). this means we still need out starting point. which is a cost of 2.5. the equation is C = (slope)5/3n + (starting value)2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
$20/hr carpenter pay
$25/hr blacksmith pay
Let c = hours working carpentry
Let b = hours working as blacksmith
c + b = 30 {equation 1}
20c + 25b = 690 {equation 2}
In equation 1 solve for one variable in terms of the other.
c = 30-b
Substitute that into equation 2:
20(30-b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
5b = 90
b = 90/5
b = 18 hours working as a blacksmith
c = 30-b = 30-18 = 12 hours as a carpenter
