Answer: The answer is A 17in2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question it states that the triangles are congruent (both the same).
first I found the area of the top orange triangle.
the formula to find the area of a triangle is (base times Height).
so I did which gave me 8.27.
Since the triangles are congruent (the same) they would both have the same area along with base and height. so I multiplied 8.27 by 2 (because there are two triangles) and got 16.54 which rounds up to 17.
the question also stated to find the APPROXIMATE area (close to the actual, but not completely accurate or exact.)

Answer:
Shopper spend $3 on Apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5)
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)
A shopper purchases one pound each of apples, grapes, and oranges and spends $10.50.
It can be written as:
We need to find how much the shopper spend on each fruit.
First we need to find value of x by solving equation
Solving:
The value of x is: x=1.5
Now finding cost of one pound each fruit by putting x=1.5
Cost of one pound of Apple = $2x = 2(1.5) = $3
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $(6x-5) = (6(1.5)-5)= $4
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $(x+2)=(1.5+2)=$3.5
So,
Cost of one pound of Apple = $3
Cost of one pound of Grapes = $4
Cost of one pound of Oranges = $3.5
So, shopper spend $3 on apples, $4 on Grapes and $3.5 on Oranges
