The inner rectangle is $55 cm^{2}$ because 5(11)=55.
The outer rectangle is $90 cm^{2}$ because 6(15)=90.

Then, add it up. 55+90=145.
I believe it should be $145 cm^{2}$ because it is the area.

$145 cm^{2}$ means squared (area).
$145 cm^{3}$ means cubed (volume).

Which figure has the same area as the parallelogram shown below? A. A triangle with a base of 4 mm and a height of 20 mm B. A tr

Arisa [49]

<h2>Answer: A trapezoid with bases of 6 mm and 14 mm and a height of 8 mm </h2>

The parallelogram in the figure has an area of $80mm^{2}$ , according to the following formula, which works for all rectangles and parallelograms:

$A_{parallelogram}=(b)(h)$ (1)

Where $b$ is the base and $h$ is the height

The<u> area of a triangle</u> is given by the following formula:

$A_{triangle}=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)$ (2)

So, for option A:

$A_{triangle}=\frac{1}{2}(4mm)(20mm)=40mm^{2} \neq 80mm^{2}$

Now, the <u>area of a trapezoid </u>is:

$A_{trapezoid}=\frac{1}{2}(b_{1}+ b_{2})(h)$ (3)

For option B:

$A_{trapezoid}=\frac{1}{2}(15mm+25mm)(2 mm)=40mm^{2} \neq 80mm^{2}$

For option C:

$A_{trapezoid}=\frac{1}{2}(6mm+14mm)(8 mm)=80mm^{2}$ >>>>This is the correct option!

For option D:

$A_{rectangle}=(30mm)(8mm)=240mm^{2} \neq 80mm^{2}$

<h2>Therefore the correct option is C</h2>

9 friends are lining up. Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith must be beside each other. How many ways can they line up?

ZanzabumX [31]

<h3>Answer: 17,280</h3>

This is one single number slightly over 17 thousand.

=========================================================

Explanation:

Let's say that another person steps in for Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith. I'll refer to this person as the teacher (perhaps these 9 friends are students on a field trip).

The 9 friends drops to 9-4 = 5 people when those four named people leave the group temporarily. Then it bumps up to 5+1 = 6 people when the teacher steps in. Wherever the teacher is located, the four friends that left will replace the teacher. This guarantees that those four friends stick together.

There are 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720 ways to arrange those 6 people. The exclamation mark is a factorial symbol.

Within any of those 720 permutations, we have 4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24 ways to arrange those group of named people when they come back to replace the teacher.

So overall the answer is 4!*6! = 24*720 = 17,280

You may need to erase the comma when typing the answer in.

-------------

Side note: There are 9! = 362,880 ways to arrange all nine friends regardless if those four mentioned people stick together or not. We see that they stick together roughly (17,280)/(362,880) = 0.0476 = 4.76% of the time.
