Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller number. 2x+7 is the larger number. Their difference is 22:

x+22=2x+7

x=15

So the smaller number is 15 and the larger number is 2(15)+7=37.

Answer:

240 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you know you have 6 triangles then you can just find the area of one and then multiply by 6. First find your formula: (b)(h)/ 2

Next plug in: (8)(10)/2 = 40

Now you know the area of one so multiply by 6: (40)(6) = 240 ft^2
