Let x be the length of the shortest side. second side is 5+x and the last is 2x-5. add these three to get the perimeter 64
x+5+x+2x-5=64
4x=64
x=16
sides are 16, 21, and 27

        !-----------------------------------------!                                     
        !                                                   !
     x !   the enclosed area                 ! x
        !                                                   !

The mean is the average
to find the average, first you add all the numbers together
10,126 + 9 999 + 12,398 + 12,007 + 4,567= 49,097
since you added five numbers together, you will divide by five
49,097 ÷ 5 = 9,189.40, so the answer is B
