The power symbols are missing.
I can infere that the product intended to simplify is (7^8) * (7^-4)., because that permits you to use the rule of the product of powers with the same base.
That rule is that the product of two powers with the same base is the base raised to the sum of the powers is:
(A^m) * (A^n) = A^ (m+n)
=>(7^8) * (7^-4) = 7^ [8 + (- 4) ] = 7^ [8 - 4] = 7^4, which is the option 3 if the powers are placed correctly.
the answer is 14

A. False
Why? Because you cut off the triangle. The measurements are 20 mm and 10 mm.
B. True
Why? Because 20*10 = 200
C. False
Why? Because the base is 6 since 26 - 20 is 6. The height is 4, not 6 because 10 - 6 is 4.
D. True
Why? Because like question C., the base is 6, and the height is 4. 6*4 is 24/2 = 12. If you don't get this, the formula for all triangles is b*h*1/2
E. True
Why? Because from questions B. and D., the area of the rectangle is 200 and the area of the triangle is 12. 200 + 12 = 210.
Hope this helped,
