Area = length x width
length = 3 x width - 5

i.e. 50 = w(3w - 5)
3w^2 - 5w - 50 = 0
(3w + 10)(w - 5) = 0
w = -10/3 or w = 5
but width cannot be negative, hence
width = 5 yd
Length = 3 x 5 - 5 = 15 - 5 = 10 yd

Mariulka [41]
Let's break down all the information we receive from the question.

One pair of shoes= three times as much as a scarf
One pair of shoes and one scarf= $32

We need to make an equation where 3s= pair of shoes and s=scarf. We then need to put one pair of shoes + one scarf = 32.
3s+s=32
Now add.
4s=32
You could use 4s=32 (or 32÷4=s).

The equation for finding the area of a trapezoid is a=1/2(b1 + b2)h ; solve for h. btw the answer is not D. Also please show wor
maks197457 [2]

Hey there!!

Equation given : A = 1/2(b₁+b₂)h

Solve for h

First, let us divide by 1/2 on both sides

(A) / (1/2) = ( 1/2(b₁+b₂)h ) / ( 1/2 )

2A = (b₁+b₂)h

Divide by (b₁+b₂) on both sides

2A / b₁+b₂ = h

Hence, the option is ( B )

Hope it helps!
