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
Answer:
A. zero
Step-by-step explanation:
cuz the graphs are not intersecting anywhere. in order for their to be a solution. the graphs must intersect
17,158/52= 329.96 rounded to the nearest tenth is 330
