UNO [17]

To make it like a simple, I'll make an equation. Let x be the number of hours because x represents unknown and we don't know the hours. Then your per hour is $7.25 right? so it would be x7.25. You want to know how many hours you will work so you can earn $125. The equation is simple as this x7.25 = 125.
All you have to do is divide the equation by 7.25 because that's your per hour.
It will look like this, <u>x7.25</u> = <u>125</u> then the answer would be 17.24 hours.
7.25 7.25

Width of the kite is = 30 inches

One of the ways to find the area is to draw a vertical line to break the kite into two equal triangles. Mark the base as 36 inches and height as 15 inches .

Now we will use the formula $area=\frac{1}{2}*base*height$ to find the area of each triangle. Then we will add both the areas to find the area of the kite.
