A two-dimensional shape (grey region) is shown below, and is made of a material with uniform density. Each grid square in the diagram is d = 1.19 meters on a side. Calculate the x-coordinate of the shape's center of mass, assuming the bottom left corner sits at the origin (a= 0, y = 0) of our coordinate system.
