The city mayor wants to use the reserved section of a rectangular park for gardening lessons conducted by the city public school. The rest of the park will be turned into a lawn. What will the area of the lawn be? A. 168 square feet
B. 224 square feet
C. 280 square feet
D. 448 square feet

the answer is C (280 square feet)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, cut the lawn so that it becomes two shapes: a rectangle, and a triangle. Solve for both areas.

A(r) = lw

A(r) = (14)(16)

A(r) = 224 square feet

A(t) = bh/2

A(t) = (8)(14) / 2

A(t) = 112 / 2

A(t) = 56 square feet

Add the two areas:

A(r) + A(t) = Area of lawn

224 square feet + 56 square feet = 280 square feet.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.

step-by-step explanation:

i believe its "c" because all of the other options include a but it could be d because there is a way of financing with cash at certain places but its uncommon.
