What is the area of the following polygon? Explain your process for how you arrived at the final area. Show your work.

400

Step-by-step explanation: first you have to know the triangle area, which is 20 times 10 divided into 2, then you have to know the square area which is 20 times 15 and finally you will put together the areas, which is 400

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
