Answer:
18617.66 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
sides of triangular base
a= 145ft ,
b = 257ft ,
c = 290ft
<u>calculate the area of the base </u>
The base is a scalene triangle hence the area is calculated as follows
s = ( a + b + c ) / 2
= ( 145 + 257 + 290 ) / 2 = 346
Area of triangle = 
= 18617.66 ft^2
Answer:
You begin with 1 bacteria, and after 1 hour it has tripled so you now have 1 x 3=3.
Next hour, it triples again so you now have 1 x 3 x 3=9
You can see the pattern shows that the number of bacteria is multiplying every hour by a factor of 3. An exponent denotes how many times we are multiplying a number by itself, for example: 34 means we are multiplying the number 3 a total of 4 times (3 x 3 x 3 x 3).
Therefore the question is requiring us to triple the number of bacteria every hour for 24 hours, which means we are multiplying by 3 a total of 24 times. This gives us:
n x 324 where n is the number of bacteria you begin with.
Since you begin with 1 bacteria, the solution is 1 x 3 to the power 24 and u will get ur answer
Any answer less than one would work, soothe answers are A and D
