not right
My apologies for the error. The correct answer is:
C. 28 square miles
Thank you for pointing out the mistake.
is this correct? 28?
I apologize for the confusion earlier. Let's reevaluate the area of the composite figure in the image.
The composite figure consists of a rectangle with dimensions 4 miles by 7 miles and a triangle with base 4 miles and height 3 miles.
Area of rectangle = length x width = 4 miles x 7 miles = 28 square miles
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 4 miles x 3 miles = 6 square miles
Total area of the composite figure = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle = 28 square miles + 6 square miles = 34 square miles
Therefore, the area of the composite figure is:
34 square miles
I apologize for the mistake in my previous responses. Thank you for your patience.
