Answer:

(x-y)

Step-by-step explanation:

convert the numerator and denominator so they can be written as single fractions.. (x/y) -(y/x) = (x/y)*(x/x) - (y/x)*(y/y) = (x^2 -y^2) / (xy) ; now the denominator (1/y)*(x/x) + (1/x)*(y/y) = (x+y)/ (xy) ; now remember that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal so your problem now becomes [(x^2 -y^2)/(xy)] * [(xy)/(x+y)] = (x^2-y^2) / (x+y) = [(x+y)(x-y)]/(x+y) = final answer (x-y)

An isosceles trapezoid has bases of lengths 6 and 8 and a height of 16. Find the area.
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In an isosceles trapezoid, the opposite sides are equal.

The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is expressed as

Area = 1/2(a + b)h

Where

a and b are the length of The bases are the 2 sides of the trapezoid which are parallel with one another.

h represents the height of the trapezoid.

From the information given,

a = 6

b = 8

height = 16

Therefore,

Area of trapezoid = 1/2(6 + 8)16

= 1/2 × 14 × 16 = 112 square units
