How can you break up the figure into familiar shapes to determine the area? A figure is broken into a triangle and rectangle. The rectangle has a base of 5 feet and height of one-third feet. The triangle has a base of 3 and two-thirds feet and height of 2 feet.
Break up the figure into a 2 ft by 3 and two-thirds ft triangle and a 5 ft by One-third ft rectangle.
Break up the figure into a 2 ft by 5 ft triangle and a 5 ft by One-third ft rectangle.
Break up the figure into a 2 ft by One-third ft triangle and a 5 ft by One-third ft rectangle.
Break up the figure into a 2 ft by 1One-third ft triangle and a 5 ft by One-third ft rectangle.

they can both be solutions depends on the equation

step-by-step explanation:

what is the equation? ?

24

step-by-step explanation:

the graph shows 30% of students walk. 80 students were questioned, so the number that said they walk is

30% × 80 = 0.30 × 80 = 24

we have three similar triangles, because each has a right angle and shares an angle.   let's write the angles in order: opposite to short leg, long leg, hypotenuse.

cab similar to bad similar to cbd

or as ratios,

ca: ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

we also know

ac = ad + cd

(ad+cd): ab: cb = ba: ad: bd = cb: bd: cd

(ad+cd)/cb=cb/cd

we have cb=6, ad=5 and seek x=cd.

we reject the negative root and conclude x=4

answer: 4
