Hi!
I have attached 2 images that should help you understand :)
First, look at the edits I made to the image you posted. I separated the shape into smaller shapes so that we can find the area of each individual one.
Let's start with the rectangle.
To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the width times the height.
10
· 4 = 40
Rectangle = 40cm
Next up, the red triangles.
I have included another image showing the triangles combined into rectangles. So we can find the area of the triangles just like we would rectangles!
(let me know if you don't understand how I found the width + height of the triangles)
5 · 10 = 50
Red triangles = 50cm
And finally, the green triangles.
8 · 7 = 56
Green triangles = 56cm
Add it all together and you get...
40 + 50 + 56 = 146
The answer to the question is
146cm.
Next time you are having trouble with something like this, picture the triangles as rectangles! :)
Answer: $6.75
Step-by-step explanation:
25 hours times $9= $225/week
3% increase from $9.00= $0.27
$9.27 times 25 hours= $231.75
$231.75-$225= $6.75 more per week
12 1/4- 1 1/2 >>> Convert fractions to decimals:
12.25- 1.5 = 10.75 >>> Convert decimals back to fractions:
10 3/4 >>> Add miles from the morning: 10 + 10 3/4 = 20 3/4 miles
Given:
Number of passengers seated in the roller coaster = 21
Empty seats = 3
Number of cars in roller coaster = 4 (each with the same number of seats)
To find:
An equation that can be used to determine the number of seats in each car.
Solution:
Let s be the number of seats in each car.
Total number of seats in 4 cars = 4s
Using the given information,
Total number of seats = Occupied seated + Empty seats
= 21 + 3
= 24
Now, the required equation is

Therefore, the required equation is
.
Divide both sides by 4.


Therefore, the number of seats in each car is 6.
