Answer:
36cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
total area: 6x(4+3)=42
total area excluding the space: 42-(2x3)=36
Solution to this question is, first we need to change the ratio of men to women is 7:5 y = 42y/x = 7/5
5y = 7xx = 5y/7x = (5 * 42)/ 7x = 30
The number of women in the office is 30.The answer is 30.
Switch sides
4/5 (x+3)=y+6
Multiply both sides by 5
5*4/5 (x+3) = 5y+5*6
Simplify
4(x+3) = 57+30
Divide both sides by 4
4(x+3)/4 = 5y/4+ 30/4
Simplify
x+3 = 5y+30/4
Subtract 3 from both sides
x+3 - 3 = 5y+30/4 - 3
Simplify
x=5y+30/4 - 3
just use A=BxH
Base times height that should give you the correct answer
1.) 6x-8y=18, 2x+8y=6 → Multiplication property of equality
2.) 8x=24 → Addition property of equality
3.) x=3 → Division property of equality
4.) 3(3)-4y=9 → Substitution property of equality
5.) 9-4y=9 → Simplify
6.) -4y=0 → Subtraction property of equality
7.) y=0 → Division property of equality
