Answer:

(a) 12 hours

(b) $220

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) First we plug in $364 for C

C=76+24h

364=76+24h

Subtract 76 from both sides

24h=288

Divide both sides by 24

h=12

She spent 12 hours fixing the drain

(b) First we plug 6 hours in for h

C=76+24(6)

Multiply it out

C=76+144

Add

C=220

It costs $220 for fixing a drain that takes 6 hours

Find the area of the polygon.
professor190 [17]
The formula for the area of the triangles is base x hight divided by 2 (bh/2)
The formula for the square is length times width (l x w)

therefore...

bh/2 = (12)(6) / 2 = 36 (this is the area of one triangle)

then you need to times 36 by 4 because you have 4 triangles.
36 x 4 = 144

l x w = 12 x 12 = 144 (this is the area of the square)

last you need to add the area of the triangles (144) and the area of the square (144) because that will give you the total surface area of the shape.

144+144= 288

so your answer is 288cm squared (288cm2)
