I NEED HELP
To find the area

205.75 ft squared

Step by Step Explanation:

Step 1) You want to split this shape into parts. The easiest may be to split it into 3. The way I did this was by breaking down the 18.5 at the bottom into the 3 parts so that there were 3 horizontal rectangles like in the attached picture

Step 2) You will have to subtract 15 (from the 8 and 7 ft at the top) to get the base value for the middle rectangle. You end up getting 3.5

Step 3) Now to find the height for the second part, we already know the heights for the first and third parts. For the middle, we have to subtract either 4 from 11.5 or 5 from 12.5. Either way, you'll get 7.5

Step 4) Simply multiply the newfound heights and widths for each part. Part 1 is (8 x 11.5 = 92) part 2 is (3.5 x 7.5 = 26.25) part 3 is (12.5 x 7 = 87.5)

Step 5) Now just add together the found areas. 92 + 26.25 + 87.5 = 205.75

Add units at the end and that should be your answer.

b) 36

step-by-step explanation:

18 times 2 is 36

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
