It's D 4 3/8 miles
First you have to multiply 2 1/2 for the mile and 1 3/4 for the inches. You will get 4.375.Convert it to fraction which is 35/8 and simplify it to get 4 3/8.
Hope this helps!
I just did it on paper but hope that helps:)
When you have an irregular figure, you can divide it so that it becomes multiple normal figures. You already did this in the picture, now you just have to find the area of each shape and then add them all together.
From bottom to top:
A=1/2 (b1+b2)h
A= 1/2 (4+2.24)(2)
A= 6.24
(you have two of these on either side)
A=bh
A=6(4)
A=24
A=1/2 bh
A= 1/2 (4)(4)
A=8
(NOTE: there is an error in your drawing. The height of the triangle cant be determined because the 10 value spans over the entire figure when the wings of the rocket are 4 units long and then the body is 6 units long, making it equal 10 already. I'm assuming that the 10 is supposed to go from the bottom of the rectangle to the top of the triangle)
Total figure= 6.24 + 6.24 + 24 + 8
total figure = 44.48
Depends on what place you are rounding to. you would usually drop them
