Answer:
Both Scott and Tara have responded correctly.
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of a trapezoid is equal to
A=(1/2)[b1+b2]h
we have
b1=16 cm
b2=24 cm
h=8 cm -----> <em>Note</em> The height is 8 cm instead of 18 cm
substitute
A=(1/2)[16+24](8)
A=160 cm²
<em>Verify Scott 's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Scott wrote A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8) instead of A = 2(24 + 16)(8)
Remember that the Commutative Property establishes "The order of the addends does not alter its result"
so
(24+16)=(16+24)
A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8)=160 cm²
<em>Verify Tara's work</em>
<em>Note</em> Tara wrote A = (1/2)(16+24)(8) instead of A = (16 + 24)(8)
A = (1/2)(16+24)(8)=160 cm²
1 3/4 for each batch to make 2 1/2 batches you need to take the amount of raisins for one batch 1 3/4 and multiply it by 2 1/2 the amount of batches.
1 3/4*2 1/2= 4 3/8 cups of raisins
Answer:
y = -14/3x + 43/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
5 - (-9) / 2 - 5
14 / -3
- 14/3
y = -14/3x + b
5 = -14/3(2) + b
5 = -28/3 + b
43/3 = b
y = -14/3x + 43/3
