Bear with my working out lol,
8x3 = 24in^2
9x12 = 108in^2
6x7 = 42in^2
(11x4) / 2 = 22in^2
Total = 196in^2
Try that, I couldn’t tell where the tip on the triangle fell at. So it could be wrong but that is what I got and what I would put :)
It seems most likely that ...
... Samantha will save $37.50 because she must first find the 25% sale price before taking the extra 50% reduction
_____
In the real world, it seems probable that Samantha will be offered the choice of using the coupon <em>or</em> the sale discount. If she chooses tht 50% coupon, her savings will be $30. If she chooses the marked sale discount, her savings will be $15.
The scenario above assumes she gets 50% off the sale price of $45, so saves $15+22.50 = $37.50 off the original price.

an = 11 + 4(n-1)
an = 11 + 4n - 4
an = 4n + 7
