Determine the area. Can some guide me how to solve this?
1 answer:
Split it up into compound shapes, calculate the areas individually and then add and subtract the relevant quantities.
For instance, the shape in part a can be split up into a quarter circle, a trapezium and a half circle. I have included a diagram that may be of assistance in understanding what I mean but I leave the calculations to you. (They're quite easy when you split the shape up anyway)

You must travel at 42 mph for 4 hours
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Time varies inversely as rate of motion
Let "t" be the time required
Let "r" be the rate of motion
Then, we get
Where, "k" is the constant of proportionality
<em><u>You travel 3 hours at a rate of 56 mph</u></em>
Substitute t = 3 and r = 56 in eqn 1
<em><u>Find the rate you must travel for 4 hours</u></em>
r = ? and t = 4
Substitute t = 4 and k = 168 in eqn 1
Thus you must travel at 42 mph for 4 hours
