Answer:

114.8\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a trapezoid is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(b1+b2)h

In this problem we have

b1=12\ ft

b2=15\ ft

h=8.5\ ft ----> the height of the trapezoid is the perpendicular distance between the bases

substitute the values

A=\frac{1}{2}(12+15)(8.5)

A=\frac{1}{2}(27)(8.5)=114.75\ ft^{2}

Round to the nearest tenth

114.75=114.8\ ft^{2}

Which of the following is a solution of 3x2 = 7x - 3?
dezoksy [38]
3x^2 = 7x - 3
3x^2 - 7x = -3
x^2 - 7/3x = -1
x^2 - 7/3x + 49/36 = -1 + 49/36 = 13/36
(x - 7/6)^2 = 13/36
x - 7/6 = + or - sqrt(13)/6
x = 7/6 + or - sqrt(13)/6
x = (7 + or - sqrt(13))/6
