to solve for j first you need to cross multiply;
j × 35 = 42 × 55
35j = 2,310
j = 2,310 ÷ 35 (did the inverse operation)
j = 66
Hope that helps :D
Let h represent the height of the trapezoid, the perpendicular distance between AB and DC. Then the area of the trapezoid is
Area = (1/2)(AB + DC)·h
We are given a relationship between AB and DC, so we can write
Area = (1/2)(AB + AB/4)·h = (5/8)AB·h
The given dimensions let us determine the area of ∆BCE to be
Area ∆BCE = (1/2)(5 cm)(12 cm) = 30 cm²
The total area of the trapezoid is also the sum of the areas ...
Area = Area ∆BCE + Area ∆ABE + Area ∆DCE
Since AE = 1/3(AD), the perpendicular distance from E to AB will be h/3. The areas of the two smaller triangles can be computed as
Area ∆ABE = (1/2)(AB)·h/3 = (1/6)AB·h
Area ∆DCE = (1/2)(DC)·(2/3)h = (1/2)(AB/4)·(2/3)h = (1/12)AB·h
Putting all of the above into the equation for the total area of the trapezoid, we have
Area = (5/8)AB·h = 30 cm² + (1/6)AB·h + (1/12)AB·h
(5/8 -1/6 -1/12)AB·h = 30 cm²
AB·h = (30 cm²)/(3/8) = 80 cm²
Then the area of the trapezoid is
Area = (5/8)AB·h = (5/8)·80 cm² = 50 cm²
Side = 8m
He increases length by 2m and reduces width by 2m
(a.) New dimensions will be -
Length = 10m and Width = 6m
(b.) Area = length x breadth (or width)
here we will use the special product (x+y) (x-y)
length = (x+y) and width = (x-y)
area = (8+2) x (8-2)
8^(2) - 2^(2)
= 60
<h2>Number of bacteria after 6 days is 2313</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Population after n days is given by

Initial population, P₀ = 1000
Increase rate, r = 15 % = 0.15
Number of days, n = 6
Substituting

Number of bacteria after 6 days = 2313
