If by decomposition you mean breaking it into parts then

break it into 2 triangles and 1 rectangle

left to right

triangle with base y and height h

h=10

y=3

area of traignel=1/2bh

aera=1/2(10)(3)

area=5(3)

area=15

rectangel of legnth x and height h

area=legnth timwe width

x=8

h=10

area=8 times 10

aera=80

last triangle

should

add

15+80+15=120

An image point has coordinates B'(7, -4). Find the coordinates of its pre-image if the translation used was (x + 4, y + 5).

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B'(7, -4)

Let the pre-image coordinates be (x,y)

Consider x-coordinate,

x + 4 = 7

x = 3

Consider y-coordinates,

y + 5 = -4

y = -9

pre-image coordinates is (3, -9)

LA BASE DE UN RECTANGULO ES 8 M MAYOR QUE LA ALTURA, EL AREA MIDE 65 METROS CUADRADOS ¿CUANTO MIDEN LA BASE Y ALTURA?

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

23 m and 15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

THE BASE OF A RECTANGLE IS 8 M GREATER THAN THE HEIGHT, THE AREA MEASURES 65 SQUARE METERS HOW MUCH DO THE BASE AND HEIGHT MEASURE?

Let the height of the rectangle is h.

Base = 8+h

Area of the rectangle, A = 65 m²

We need to find the base and height of the rectangle. The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = bh

So,

$65=(8+h)\times h\\\\65=8h+h^2\\\\h^2+8h-65=0\\\\(h-5)(h+13)=0\\\\h=5\ m\ \text{and}\ x=-13\ m$

Neglecting negative value, h = 15 m

Base = 8+15 = 23 m

So, the base and height of the rectangle is 23 m and 15 m respectively.

Gary is the school cheif. He makes 45 tocos for every 15 students. How many students would gary make 450 tacos for

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

15 students/45 tacos=? students/450 tacos

15 x 450=6750

6750/45=150

Gary would be making 450 tacos for 150 students

Weights of golden retriever dogs are normally distributed. Samples of weights of golden retriever dogs, each of size nequals15

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the population, in this case, weights of golden retriever dogs, follows a normal distribution, then the sample will too, even if the sample size is lower than 30. You only have to worry about the sample size being too small when a problem doesn't explicitly say the distribution from which the samples are drawn is normally distributed.
