The area of section 1 is 12 square feet, the area of section 2 is 40 square feet, and the area of section 3 is 6 square feet.
Answer:
![n = \frac{r}{\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5Bnt%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bp%7D%7D%20-1%20%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:


![\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} =(1+\frac{r}{n} )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bnt%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bp%7D%7D%20%20%3D%281%2B%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7Bn%7D%20%29)
![\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 =(\frac{r}{n} )](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bnt%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bp%7D%7D%20-1%20%3D%28%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7Bn%7D%20%29)
![n = \frac{r}{\sqrt[nt]{\frac{a}{p}} -1 }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Br%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5Bnt%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bp%7D%7D%20-1%20%7D)
[ Do not confuse, as there are 2 n's, one in subject and another as power. We can never make the power or in a root, the subject. In order to solve for n, we have to make the character "n", the subject. ]
(let x represent the blank)
3/8 + 2/3 = x + 3/8
25/24 = x + 3/8
subtract 3/8 from both sides of the equation
2/3 = x
Hope this helps you and good-luck
