The graph is not proportional because it doesn’t go throug the point 0,0
The length of wire to be purchased will be found as follows:
c²=a²+b²
c²=18²+24²
c²=900
c=√900
c=30 ft
Thus the length of the wire will be:
30+4+4
=38 ft

Answer:
B) 171 units^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is given by the formula ...
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
Filling in the given base and height values, we find the area to be ...
A = 1/2(23 +15)(9) = (19)(9) = 171 . . . square units

<em>Additional comment</em>
You can select the correct answer choice simply on the basis of "reasonableness." If this were a 9×15 rectangle, its area would be 9×15 = 135 square units, more than 85.5. You know its area is less than a 9×23 rectangle, so is less than 9×23 = 207 square units. Only one answer choice is a value between 135 and 207.

Multiplication by 9 is not so hard. It is multiplication by 10-1:
15×9 = 15×(10 -1) = 150 -15 = 135
