Answer:

£18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of the game

Increase in price = 1/2

New price = £27

x + 1/2x = £27

2x+x/2 = 27

3/2x = 27

x = 27 ÷ 3/2

= 27 × 2/3

= 54 / 3

x = £18

Therefore, the original price of the game is £18

Answer:

£18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = original price of the game

Increase in price = 1/2

New price = £27

x + 1/2x = £27

2x+x/2 = 27

3/2x = 27

x = 27 ÷ 3/2

= 27 × 2/3

= 54 / 3

x = £18

Therefore, the original price of the game is £18

What is the area of this figure?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The area of the figure is equal to 35\ cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The area of the figure is equal to the area of a square plus the area of a triangle

<u>Find the area of the square</u>

The area of square is equal to

A=b^{2} =5^{2}=25\ cm^{2}

<u>Find the area of the triangle</u>

The area of the triangle is equal to

A=(1/2)bh=(1/2)(5)(4)=10\ cm^{2}

therefore

The area of the figure is equal to

25\ cm^{2}+10\ cm^{2}=35\ cm^{2}
