Answer:

  63,990 mi²

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the answer by using the formula for the area of a trapezoid and putting in the given numbers.

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h . . . . where b1, b2 are the base lengths; h is the height

  A = (1/2)(198 mi +276 mi)(270 mi)

  A = 63,990 mi²

___

<em>Comment on the area of Missouri</em>

This estimate is about 8.2% low.

a particular truck in a transportation fleet was driven 194,070 miles last year versus 329,919 miles this year . by what percent
Ann [662]

We take as the 100% the 194070 miles from last year. Then, we apply a rule of three:

\begin{gathered} 194070\rightarrow100\text{ \%} \\ 329919\rightarrow x\text{ \%} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{329919\cdot100}{194070}=\frac{32991900}{194070}=170 \\ x=170\text{ \%} \end{gathered}

Since 329,919 is the 170% of last year's miles, then the increase was of 70%

x=8 or x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-16=6x

x²-6x-16=0

x²-8x+2x-16=0

x(x-8)+2(x-8)=0

(x-8)(x+2)=0

either,. or.

x-8=0 x+2=0

x=8 x=-2
