Answer:

  110 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h . . . . . . where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases, and h is the perpendicular distance between them.

In your problem, b1 and b2 are 13 in and 9 in, and h is 10 in. Putting these values into the formula, we find the area to be ...

  A = (1/2)(13 in + 9 in)(10 in) = 110 in²

The area of the trapezoid is 110 square inches.

_____

First, we identify the appropriate formula to use for the geometry shown in the diagram.

Next, we determine from the diagram the values to use in the formula.

Last, we evaluate the formula and make a summary statement of results.

Jason eats 10 ounces of candy in 5 days. a. How many pounds does he eat per day?
Nadusha1986 [10]
A. He eats 1/8 a pound of candy each day.
B. It would take him a total of 8 days to eat a pound of candy.

A. Since he ate 10 ounces in 5 days, you divide 10 by 5 to find he ate 2 ounces per day. Since there are 16 ounces in a pound that would be your denominator (bottom of fraction) and 2 would be the numerator (top of your fraction). You will get 2/16 which if you simplify (divide by 2) you get 1/8.

B. Knowing that there are 16 ounces per pound and he ate 1/8 pound ( 2/16 pound or 2 ounces) a day, you can either look at the simplified denominator to get the answer, or, divide 16 by 2 to get your answer.

Nine yards of ribbon are cut into 8 equal pieces what is the length of each piece of ribbon. Write a division expression to repr
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

x=1.125\ yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call x the length of each piece in yards

If the ribbon is cut into 8 equal pieces then the sum of the pieces is:

x+x+x+x+x+x+x+x=8x

Then:

8x=9\ yards

Now we solve the equation for x

8x=9\ yards

Divide both sides of equality by 8

\frac{8}{8}x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

x=\frac{9}{8}\ yards

So the length of each piece is \frac{9}{8} of a yard.

This is: 1.125 yards

Any sandwich - £2.85 ___ sandwich, water crisp

A bottle of water - 60p

A bag of crisp - 85p

Answer:

£6.50, John is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of working days = 5 = number of days meal is purchased

Total cost per meal, shop A :

£(2.85 + 0.60 + 0.85) = £4.3

Total cost for the week = 4.3 * 5 = £21.50

Total cost per meal cost Shop B = £3

Total cost for the week = 3 * 5 = £15

Difference :

£21.50 - £15 = £6.50

Hence, Amount John saves by buying from shop B is £6.50
