Solve the following problem using what you know about composite figures. What is the area of the figure?
(1 point)
To find the area of a composite figure, we need to break it down into smaller, simpler shapes and then add up their individual areas.
In this case, the figure can be divided into two rectangles.
The first rectangle has dimensions 4 units by 7 units, so its area is 4 * 7 = 28 square units.
The second rectangle has dimensions 2 units by 7 units, so its area is 2 * 7 = 14 square units.
Therefore, the total area of the figure is 28 + 14 = 42 square units.
