This is direct variation since the x isn't in the denominator.
The answer to this question is b
Answer:
120 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to find the area of a triangle is :
Area = 
× base × height
Given that,
base ⇒ 30 ft
height ⇒ 8 ft
<u>Let us solve it now.</u>
Area = × base × height
Area = × 30 ft × 8 ft
Area = × 240 ft²
Area =<u> 120 ft²</u>
Lets x is the 1st consecutive even integers
x +2 :the 2nd consecutive even integers
x +4: the 3rd consecutive even integers
So sum of all 3 equals -78 then
x + (x+2) + (x+4) = -78
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = -78
Simplify
3x + 6 = -78
Subtract (-6) to both sides
3x +6 -6 = -78 - 6
Simplify
3x = -84
Divided both sides by 3
3x/3 = -84/3
x = -28
x + 2 = -28 + 2 = -26
x +4 = - 28 + 4 = -24
Double check: -28 + -26 + -24 = -78
So the three consecutive even integers are: -24, -26, -28
The smallest integer would be -28
