Question

what area of the market do the tents cover in square feet?

Answer 1

We have the following:

we separate the figure into 2 two, the total area will be the sum of these, like this:

the area of each one is the base times the height in each case, therefore we calculate in each case the area

The small

$\begin{gathered} a=2\cdot2=4 \\ \end{gathered}$

The big

$A=4\cdot5=20$

The total area is:

$A_T=4+20=24$

The answer is 24 square feet
