In order to solve for r you have to place all the number in one side. then isolate r ...... r=1
ANSWER
B. 10
EXPLANATION
We need to find the value of x first.
It was given that the perimeter of triangle XYZ is 24.
This means that:
XY+YZ+XZ=24
we substitute the expression in terms of x to get;

This implies that


Divide both sides by 4 to get;

|WY|=|ZX|=13-3=10
To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:
1- The formula for calculate the area of this rectangle is:

Where
is the length and
is the heigth.
2. Let's call identify the heigth with the variable
.
3. If the length is
longer than the heigth, you have:

4. Therefore, you can write the following polynomial expression:

5. If you know the value of the heigth, you can susbstitute it into the polynomial expression shown above and you will obtain the area.
Therefore, the answer is:
