Please help answer this question it would help if multiple people answered so I could confirm a correct answer thank you

53.33

Step-by-step explanation:

finding area of ΔPAM

using similar triangles

16 = 12x; x =

ΔPAM = 4/3 * 4 * 1/2 = 16/6 = 8/3

ΔPAL = 4 * 12 * 1/2 = 24

24 + 8/3 = 80/3 (using fraction form for now, will round later)

since there are two ΔPLM (ΔLMU has same area since they are congruent)

we can multiply 80/3 by 2

80/3 * 2  = 160/3 = 53.33

-362

step-by-step explanation:

(12)(4)+2(12)-34(12)+2(12)-3

  \/         \/         \/         \/

  48 +   24 -   408 + 24 - 3

      \   /               \   /

          72     -     432 - 3 = -363
