Answer:
The equation will be :
Step-by-step explanation:
Olivia received a $700 signing bonus when she accepted a job as a nurse.
She makes $24 an hour.
Let the number of hours she works be 'x'
So, at a rate of $24 per hour, she makes $24x for 'x' hours.
And $700 is a fixed amount so it will not be used with variable.
Thus the equation that forms to get 'y', the total pay in dollars is :

First of all, let's recall the area of a triangle, knowing its base (b) and height (h):
The exercise is showing you that, if you inscribe a polynomial with more and more side, the area of the polynomial will approximate the area of the circle better and better (you can see youself that the polygon is "filling" the circle more and more as the number of sides increase).
Now, the second column tells you the area of each of the triangles the polygon is split into. So, we can see that the first polygon is split into 3 triangles, each of them having base 1.73 and height 0.5.
So, the area of each triangle is
There are three of these triangles, so the area of the whole polygon is
In the second case, you have six triangles, each with base 1 and height 0.87. So, the whole area is
Finally, in the last case you have 8 triangles, each with base 0.77 and height 0.92. So, the whole area is
