To be able to solve clearly this problem, the best thing to do is to plot the graph (see attached pic). From the graph we can see that the points form a trapezoid.
The base is formed by the segment connecting point A and point B.
While the two heights: shorter one by the segment connecting points A and D, and the longer one by the segment connecting points B and C.
The formula for area of trapezoid is given as:
A = b (h1 + h2) / 2
Where,
<span>b = base of the trapezoid = 3 – (-4) = 7</span>
h1 = shorter height = 2 – (-2) = 4
h2 = longer height = 2 – (-5) = 7
Therefore the area is:
A = 7 (4 + 7) / 2
A = 77 / 2
<span>A = 38.5 </span>

Answer:
70%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, convert 0.3 into a percentage;
To do so, convert it 0.3 into a fraction then multiply by 100;
0.3 into a fraction = 3/10
3/10 into a percentage =
The 10 at the bottom cancels out one zero at the top and you are left with 30.
Therefore percentage in Carlos' monthly savings is = 30%
Next, calculate the percentage NOT put in savings
percentage NOT put in savings = 100% - percentage in savings;
That is ; 100% -30% =70%
Hence, 70% of his income is not put into savings.
