Step-by-step explanation:

You can divide the shape into pieces several ways. The total area will be the sum of the areas of the pieces.

If we draw a horizontal line across the figure 2 inches up from the bottom, the figure is divided into a triangle and two rectangles.

The triangle has a base of 8 -3-2 = 3 inches, and a height of 4 -2 = 2 inches. Its area is ...

  A = (1/2)(3 in)(2 in) = 3 in²

The rectangle below the line has a base of 8 inches and a height of 2 inches. Its area is ...

  A = bh = (8 in)(2 in) = 16 in²

The rectangle above the line has a base of 3 inches and a height of 4 inches. Its area is ...

  A = bh = (3 in)(4 in) = 12 in²

Then the total area of the figure is ...

  (3 + 16 + 12) in² = 31 in² . . . . the area of the figure

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
