Find the area of the trapezoid

Mathematics
2 answers:
Rudik [331]3 years ago

Answer: 75

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula for a trapzoid is area= 1/2 (a+b) h

In this equasion, the substitution would be area=1/2 (10+15) 6

Following PEMDAS, enter the numbers within the parenthases (10+15)

Divide the 25 in half, then multiply by 6. This comes out to 75.

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a trapezoid is given by:

A = \frac {1} {2} (B + b) * h

Where:

B: It is the major base

b: It is the minor base

h: It's the height

According to the figure we have the following data:

B = 15ft\\b = 10ft\\h = 6ft

Substituting in the formula:

A = \frac {1} {2} (15 + 10) * 6\\A = \frac {1} {2} (25) * 6\\A = \frac {1} {2} 150\\A = 75

Finally, the area of the trapezoid is75ft ^ 2

Answer:

75ft ^ 2

Mary spent half of her allowance going to the movies. She washed the family car and earned seven dollars. What is her weekly all
Nata [24]

Answer:If Mary spent half of her allowance the equation will begin with 1/2x or 0.5x where x is her allowance and 0.5 is half of her allowance spent. Mary also earned 7 dollars by washing the car so this will be added to her allowance spent.

The problem says that after Mary has spent half of her allowance at the movies she was left with 18 dollars so that means that the equation must be equal to 18.

The equation you want to set up is

0.5x+7=18

Where, 18-7=11

0.5x=11

11/.5 = x

x = $22

Thus, Mary has a weekly allowance of 22 dollars.

A family of 4 spent $104 for tickets to a concert on Friday and they spent $140 for tickets to a dinner theater on Saturday. All
Julli [10]

Answer:

  • Friday's tickets: $26 each
  • Saturday's tickets: $35 each

Step-by-step explanation:

We presume that 4 tickets were bought each day, so the price of 1 ticket is 1/4 of the total price:

  (1/4)($104) = $26

  (1/4)($140) = $35

The cost of each ticket on Friday was $26; on Saturday, the cost was $35.

PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ASAP
Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

the probability of the dice is 1/6 and the probability of the spinner is 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability of the dice=E/S=E=1 and S=6 because it is one dice. so P=1/6.

the probability of the spinner=E/S=E=1 and S=4 because the spinner is divided into 4. so P=1/4

Find an asymptote of this conic section. 9x^2-36x-4y^2+24y-36=0
ki77a [65]
We will begin by grouping the x terms together and the y terms together so we can complete the square and see what we're looking at. (9x^2-36x)-(4y^2+24y)-36=0.  Now we need to move that 36 over by adding to isolate the x and y terms.  (9x^2-36x)-(4y^2+24y)=36.  Now we need to complete the square on the x terms and the y terms.  Can't do that, though, til the leading coefficients on the squared terms are 1's.  Right now they are 9 and 4.  Factor them out: 9(x^2-4x)-4(y^2-6y)=36.  Now let's complete the square on the x's. Our linear term is 4.  Half of 4 is 2, and 2 squared is 4, so add it into the parenthesis.  BUT don't forget about the 9 hanging around out front there that refuses to be forgotten.  It is a multiplier.  So we are really adding in is 9*4 which is 36.  Half the linear term on the y's is 3.  3 squared is 9, but again, what we are really adding in is -4*9 which is -36.  Putting that altogether looks like this thus far: 9(x^2-4x+4)-4(y^2-6y+9)=36+36-36.  The right side simplifies of course to just 36.  Since we have a minus sign between those x and y terms, this is a hyperbola.  The hyperbola has to be set to equal 1.  So we divide by 36.  At the same time we will form the perfect square binomials we created for this very purpose on the left: \frac{(x-2)^2}{4}- \frac{(y-3)^2}{9}=1.  Since the 9 is the bigger of the 2 values there, and it is under the y terms, our hyperbola has a horizontal transverse axis.  a^2=4 so a=2; b^2=9 so b=3.  Our asymptotes have the formula for the slope of m=+/- \frac{b}{a} which for us is a slope of negative and positive 3/2.  Using the slope and the fact that we now know the center of the hyperbola to be (2, 3), we can solve for b and rewrite the equations of the asymptotes.  3= \frac{3}{2}(2)+b give us a b of 0 so that equation is y = 3/2x.  For the negative slope, we have 3=- \frac{3}{2}(2)+b which gives us a b value of 6.  That equation then is y = -3/2x + 6.  And there you go!
