Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the area of total rectangle which equals 20 * 12 = 240

The required area = total rectangle - triangle = 240 - 12 = 228
Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The score of Raven is 9 points
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Let the point scored by bangal be"x"
Score of Raven = 40 points
Given that,
The ravens scored 13 more than three times number points that the bangals scored in their last game
Score of raven = 13 + 3(score of bangal)
40 = 13 + 3x
Solve the above equation for x
3x = 40 - 13
3x = 27
x = 9
Thus the score of Raven is 9 points
