I need help with this question and I was wondering if I can get some help with it

26.75

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to break up the whole shape into smaller ones.

To find the area of a triangle, you multiply the base x height and divide by 2.

The first smaller shape is the right triangle in the bottom left. To find the area you multiply 2(2), which is 4. Then divide by 2, which is 2.

The next shape is the square in the bottom middle. The area is simply 2(2)=4.

The next shape is the triangle in the bottom right. To find the area you multiply 2(5)/2=5.

The last shape is the triangle on top. The base is 3.5. The height though, you have to add the height for all 3 shapes on the bottom. 2+2+5=9. 3.5(9)/2=15.75

Finally, add up all of the areas. 2+4+5+15.75=26.75

step-by-step explanation:

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.
