Answer:
24 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
You apply area of a trapezium
An expression for “7 divided by c” is 7/c or 7 ÷ c
Alex bought all the string needed for $125.
It costs $18 for the remaining materials to make each puppet.
So if we closely observe then we see that here $125 is the fixed cost because its not going to change with number of puppets.
And the variable cost is $18.
In this case we can model a Total cost function C(x) for for x number of puppets as below

The total cost to make 50 puppets=$1025
Answer:
AB = 9/2 cm
AB = 4.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of small rectangle
x * (x-4) = x^2 -4x
The area of the big rectangle
The height is 2x +x and the width is x-2
(2x+x) * (x-2)
(3x) * (x-2)
3x^2 -6x
Add the areas together
x^2 -4x + 3x^2 -6x
4x^2 -10x
This is equal to 36
4x^2 -10x=36
Subtract 36 from each side
4x^2 -10x -36=36-36
4x^2 -10x-36=0
Divide each side by 2
2x^2 -5x -18=0
Factor
(x + 2) (2 x - 9) = 0
Using the zero product property
x+2=0 2x-9=0
x = -2 2x =9
x = -2 x = 9/2
Since we cant have a negative length
x = 9/2
AB = 9/2 cm
