Hi

The point H is not on the figure, I suppose it is the intersection of line DG and line CF.

Area of triangle DFG = Area of triangle CFG = 1/2 of area of rectangle
= 1/2 x 7 x 17 = 59.5 cm2

Area of triangle CGH
= Area of triangle CFG - Area of triangle FGH
= 59.5 cm2 - 51 cm2
= 8.5 cm2

cheers.

Mrs Tan bought 4 times as many toy guns as teddy bears. She spent $1750 altogether. A toy gun cost $10 less than a teddy bear. The total cost of toy guns was $490 more than the total cost of teddy bears.

a) How much did Mrs Tan spend on the teddy bears?
b) How much did one teddy bear cost?

Thanks.

Hi

Amount spent on teddy bears ----- 630

Amount spent on toy guns ------ 1120

Toy guns ------ 4 units

Teddy bears ------ 1 unit

1 unit of toy gun ------- 1120/4 ------- 280

630 – 280 ------- 350

1 unit of teddy bears costs $350 more because a teddy bear costs $10 more than a toy gun.

Number of teddy bear ------- 350/10 ------ 35

Cost of 1 teddy bear ------ 630/35 ------ 18

Hi

She spent $1750 altogether. The total cost of toy guns was $490 more than the total cost of teddy bears.

Amount spent on teddy bears ----- (1750 - 490)/2 = 630

Amount spent on toy guns ----- 1750 - 630 = 1120
