Answer: 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, since we're asked to find the length of the median, let's use our formula for the area of a trapezoid that involves the median which is shown below.

Area = median · height

We know that the area is 144 and the height is 9 so we can set up the equation 144 = M · 12. Now to solve for <em>m</em>, we divide both sides of the equation by 12 and we find that 12 = M.

So the length of the median of the trapezoid is 12 inches.

Find the quotient: -10/9 divided by -5/7
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

70/45

Step-by-step explanation:

(-10/9) divided by (-5/7)  = (-10/9) / (-5/7)

dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the top fraction by the reciprocal of the bottom one

top fraction = -10/9

bottom fraction = -5/7

reciprocal just means switching the numerator and denominator

reciprocal of bottom fraction = 7 / -5 = -7/5

thus,

(-10/9) / (-5/7) = (-10/9) * reciprocal of (-5/7) = (-10/9) * (-7/5) = 70/45

note that to multiply two fractions, you just multiply the numerators to get your new numerator and do the same thing with the denominators

Solve the system of equations. <br> 3x-4y=8 <br> 18x-5y=10
ipn [44]

Answer:

y = -2    x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 3x-4y = 8

2. 18-5y = 10

Multiply equation 1 by 6

3. 18x-24y = 48

Subtract equation 2 from equation 3

4. -19y = 38

        y = 38/-19

        y = -2

Sub y = -2 back into equation 1

      3x-4(-2) = 8

      3x + 8 = 8

      3x = 0

      x = 0/3

      x = 0
