Answer:
the answer is C (280 square feet)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, cut the lawn so that it becomes two shapes: a rectangle, and a triangle. Solve for both areas.
A(r) = lw
A(r) = (14)(16)
A(r) = 224 square feet
A(t) = bh/2
A(t) = (8)(14) / 2
A(t) = 112 / 2
A(t) = 56 square feet
Add the two areas:
A(r) + A(t) = Area of lawn
224 square feet + 56 square feet = 280 square feet.
We can pick a common denominator by multiplying.
3*7/5*7= 21/35
4*5/7*5= 20/35
We have our common denom is 15.
Our fractions: 21/35 and 20/35

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
24,000 = 24 thousands
30,000 = 30 thousands
3,000 = 3 thousands
2,4000 = 2.4 thousands
"x" years
24 + 3x = 30 + 2.4x
3x - 2.4x = 30 - 24
0.6x = 6
x = <em>10 years</em>
