<h2>
Hello!</h2>
The answer is:
The area of this figure is 946 square inches.
<h2>
Why?</h2>
We can see that the figure is composed by two rectangles with diferrent dimensions, so, to calculate the area of the entire figure.
So,
For the first rectangle, we have:
The area will be:
For the second rectangle, we have:
The area will be:
Now, calculating the area of the entire figure, we have:
Have a nice day!
Y+3=(-1/3)(x-3)
y+3=(-1/3)x+1
y=(-1/3)x-2
False, since if there are two perpendicular lines with gradients m1 and m2, then m1*m2 = -1.
Taking this example -5/2 multiplied by 5/2 is equal to -25/4, which is not equal to -1.
To find the actual gradient of the perpendicular line you would have to divide -1 by -5/2, which gives you 2/5.
