Check the picture below.
so the area of the hexagon is really just the area of two isosceles trapezoids.

Answer:
-18y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Sorry if this is wrong, I was just guessing...
This will only have one solution because it does not deal with a quadratic. Then to isolate x you need to get the similar terms on different sides by subtracting or adding, Then divide both sides by the number next to x (coefficient).
Answer:
Assume that Sk is valid for n=k and prove that Sn is valid for n= k+ 1
Step-by-step explanation:
This is Principle of Mathematical Induction ---PMI
Step 1: Verify that Sn is valid for n =1
Step 2:Assume that Sk is valid for n=k and prove that Sn is valid for n= k+ 1
