What is the area of this trapezoid?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer: 357 cm²

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, were asked to find the area of the trapezoid shown. Remember that a trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides. The formula for the area of a trapezoid is shown below

The b's are the bases or the parallel sides and the h represents the height.

So in the trapezoid shown, the bases are 15 cm and 27 cm and the height is 17 cm.

Plugging this information into the formula, we have .

Next, the order of operations tells us that we must simplify inside the parentheses first. 15 cm + 27 cm is 42 cm and we have

1/2 × 42 cm is 21 cm and we have (21 cm)(17 cm) which is 357 cm².

So the area of the trapezoid shown is 357 cm².

James sold 450 tickets for the community play. Tickets for children cost $2, and tickets for adults cost $5. James sold $1,800 w
nlexa [21]

Answer:

<u>James sold 300 tickets for adults</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Number of tickets sold by James = 450

Cost of a child ticket = $ 2

Cost of an adult ticket =$ 5

Amount of money collected by James after selling the 450 tickets for the community play = $ 1,800

2. How many tickets for adults did James sell?

x = Number of adult tickets James sold

450 - x = Number of children tickets James sold

For solving for x, we write this equation:

5x + 2 * (450 - x)  = 1,800

5x + 900 - 2x = 1,800

3x = 1,800 - 900

3x = 900

x = 900/3 = 300

450 - x = 450 - 300 = 150

<u>James sold 300 tickets for adults and 150 for children</u>

Please help me with vivid explanation​
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

864 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

  • First calculate the total area of the rectangular field

The area of a rectangle is given by the product of the length and the width

let A be the total area

A = 100*120

A = 12000 m²

Calculate the area of the small rectangles

  • Let A' be the total area of the four small rectangles and A" the area of one small rectangle
  • A' = 4 A"
  • A' = 4 [(\frac{120-4}{2})*(\frac{100-4}{2})]
  • A' = 4*58*48
  • A' = 11136 m²

  • Substract the A' from A to get the area of the road

Let A"' be the area of the road

A"' =A-A'

A"' = 12000-11136

A"' = 864 m²
