1500(1+0.04)^3 = 1687.30
1687.30(1+0.05) = 1771.67 to the nearest pound: 1772
Since the two measures are vertical angles, you want to set them equal to each other :
6x+7=8x-17
-6x -6x
——————
7=2x-17
+17 +17
———————
24= 2x
X= 12
———
The answer is 12.
Well the formula is : b1+b2/2 (h)
so the height would be solved as :
13.5 = 3+6/2 (h)
13.5 = 9/2 (h)
h = (13.5)/(9/2)
h = (13.5) x (2/9) *reciprocal*
h = (27) / (9)
h = 3
Area of the parallelogram = 20 x 16 = 320
Area of the triangle on top = 1/2 x 20 x 8 = 80
Total = 320 + 80 = 400 square inches
