B is the answer.
x (the variable for number of hours worked) must be connected the number indicating the hourly rate, which is 56.
375 must be added at some point in the equation due to it being an indicated signing bonus (it has to be added).
I believe the answer is
2 and 1/5
If the sides are in the ratio of 11:16:24, it means that they are all multiples of a same number x, according to these factors.
So, the shorter side is 11x feet long, the middle one is 16x feet long, and the longest side is 24x feet long.
This means that the perimeter is
feet long. But we know that this is 510 feet, so we have
.
So, the three sides are 110, 160 and 240 feet long.
To find the area of a triangle knowing its three sides, you can use Heron's formula, which states that, if
is half the perimeter of the triangle whose sides are
, the area
is given by

In our case,
so the formula becomes

Answer:
3.
Step-by-step explanation:
3(n + 4) = 21
3n + 12 = 21
3n = 21 - 12 = 9
n = 3.
The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
A = 0.5(b₁ + b₂)h
where A is area, b₁ and b₂ are the lengths of the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values,
A = 0.5(15 m + 19 m)(10 m)
A = 170 m²
The area of the garden is 170 m².
