The question states that both parts of Noshi's desk were shaped like trapezoids and both had a height of 3.
We know that the formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases of the trapezoid and h is the height. Note: This is like any other form of trying to find the area, because we are doing base times height, however, we need to divide the sum of the bases by 2 to find the average base length.
Let's call the first trapezoid on the left Trapezoid A and the second slanted trapezoid Trapezoid B.
Area of Trapezoid A = (a+b)/2 * h = (5+8)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
Area of Trapezoid B = (a+b)/2 * h = (4+9)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
To find the area of Noshi's total desk, we simply need to add the areas of Trapezoid A and Trapezoid B together.
19.5 feet + 19.5 feet = 39 feet
Therefore, the area of Noshi's desk is 39 feet.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Calling it blocks is a little weird. but a good way to do it is to move left or right until you are over or below where you want to go then move up or down accordingly. Each move, left, right up or down will count as one block.
So from the fire station you go 1 to the right and then 6 down, for a total of 7. then from the library it's 3 right then 4 up, which is 7 again. 7 to the first stop then 7 to the second makes 14 total.
If there's something you don't get let me know.
Answer:
-18
Step-by-step explanation:
5a2-7-b3
Therefore, -18 is your answer.
Hope this helped! :)
The equation is 2x+3=7
2x +3=7
-3 -3
2x=4
divide both sides by 2
x=2
the answer is 2
