I beleive the answer is B
Answer:
482.5 ft^2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure can be regarded as a rectangle with a triangle cut out of one corner.
The base of the triangle = 25-20 = 5 in and the height = 20 - 13 = 7 in.
The required area = area of rectangle - area of triangle
= 25*20 - 1/2 * 5 * 7
= 500 - 17.5
= 482.5 ft^2
Since he must not exceed 8 hours driving in a day:
Let the distance of the picnic be = x km.
Therefore time for forward journey = x / 60
Return journey = x / 50
The total trip should not exceed 8 hours.
Therefore: x / 60 + x / 50 <= 8. LCM = 300
Taking LCM and multiplying on both sides:
5x + 6x <= 8(300)
11x <= 2400
x <= 2400/11
x <= 218.18
The picnic spot must be less than or equal to 218.18 km.
so the investigator found the skid marks were 75 feet long hmmm what speed will that be?

nope, the analysis shows that Charlie was going faster than 35 m/h.
now, assuming Charlie was indeed going at 35 m/h, then his skid marks would have been
