Answer:
- $500
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>- Sofa = s
- Love seat = l
- Chair = c
- Sofa and love seat cost = $1300
- Sofa and 2 chairs cost = $1400
- Sofa, love seat and one chair cost = $1600
- Love seat = ?
<u>Equations as per given are:</u>
- s + l = 1300
- s + 2c = 1400
- s + l + c = 1600
<u>Subtract equation 1 from equation 3:</u>
- s + l + c - s - l = 1600 - 1300
- c = 300
<u>Considering this in the equation 2:</u>
- s + 2*300 = 1400
- s = 1400 - 600
- s = 800
<u>Substituting s in the equation 1:</u>
- 800 + l = 1300
- l = 1300 - 800
- l = 500
<u>Answer:</u> Love seat costs $500

Answer:
<u>70 square units</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>I have plotted the points on the coordinate system and connected roughly using a red line. Image is attached. </em>
The arrow created, consists of a TRIANGLE and a RECTANGLE. The area of the arrow would be:
Area of Arrow = Area of Triangle + Area of Rectangle
Area of Triangle = 0.5 * base * height
Base is 12 units
Height is 7 units, so
Area of Triangle = 0.5 * 12 * 7 = 42
Now,
Area of Rectangle = length * height
Length is 7
Height is 4
Area of Rectangle = 7 * 4 = 28
<u>Area of Arrow = 42 + 28 = 70 square units</u>
