<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

Scott will need 168 ft² of pavers to cover his patio

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

Scott wants to cover a trapezoid-shaped patio

<u>This means that:</u>

To get the number of square feet of pavers he'll need, we need to get the area of his patio

<u>Area of trapezium id calculated as follows:</u>

Area = \frac{base_{1}+base_{2}}{2} * height

<u>We are given that:</u>

base₁ = 11 ft

base₂ = 13 ft

height = 14 ft

<u>We now substitute with the givens to get the area as follows:</u>

Area = \frac{11+13}{2} * 14 = 168ft^2

<u>This means that:</u>

Scott will need 168 ft² of pavers to cover his patio

Hope this helps :)

do you think that a negative sign affects whether or not a number is rational number? Use -8/5 an example.
lina2011 [118]

-8/5 is a rational number because in order to be a rational number it must be able to be written as a fraction. -8/5 is a fraction; therefore, the negative does not affect it.

The Hamilton Brush Company issued 2,500 shares of common stock worth $100,000.00 total. What is the par value of each share?
alexandr1967 [171]
What we know here is that all 2500 shares together are worth 100 000 dollars in total. (it's 100 000.00 actually, but we can ignore the part after the point, as it's equal to 0).

This means that each of the shares is valid the whole sum divided by the number of shares, that is:
\frac{100000}{2500} = \frac{1000}{25} =40
(first i divided both denominator and numerator by 100)
So each value is worth 40 dolars.
