A parking space shaped like a parallelogram has a base of 17 feet and a hight is 9 feet. A car parked in the space is 16 feet long and 6 feet wide. How much of the parking space is not covered by the car

57 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Lol I always found the area formula for a parallelogram to be interesting- it's like a rectangle, just the base times the height.

So to find this, you would subtract the area of the parallelogram by the area covered by the car.

(17ft · 9ft) - (16ft ·6ft) = 153ft² - 96ft²

= 57 ft²

Lol don't forget the units! A few of my teachers have been really picky about it, where if you don't include units, the entire answer is wrong : ( but either way, it's a good habit to pick up!

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
