What is the area? Round to the nearest tenth

60.8 mm^2

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

You have to assume that the left and right sides are both 9.3. The question is undoable without that assumption.

Next, you have to assume that The top is 7.8 mm across and both ends meet 9.3 at right angles. Again if that is not true, the problem can't be done. Sometimes people making these questions make errors which you are asked to correct.

Solution

So let's assume that everything I've assumed is correct.

Find the area of the rectangle.

Area = L*W

L = 9.3

W = 7.8

Area = 7.8 * 9.3

Area = 72.54        Do your rounding at the end.

Now find the are of the triangle that has been cut out.

The height = 3

The base = 7.8

Area = 1/2 b * h

Area = 1/2 7.8 * 3

Area = 11.7

The area of the figure = area of the rectangle - the triangle's area

Figure Area = 72.54 - 11.7

Figure Area = 60.84

step-by-step explanation:

we are given

since, we have to isolate x on anyone side

so, we can move all x terms on one side

subtract both sides by 2x

add both sides by 9

divide both sides by 4

we get
