Answer:

$27 \: {km}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the shape of a trapezoid.

Therefore,

Area of the trapezoid

$= \frac{1}{2} (2 + 7) \times 6 \\ \\ = 9 \times 3 \\ \\ = 27 \: {km}^{2}$

is (-1/2 x + 6/7) - (7/2 x - 4/7) equivalent to -4 x + 2/7 ? use the properties of operations to justify your answer

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The given equation is NOT justified.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equation is $(\frac{-1}{2}x + \frac{6}{7} ) - (\frac{7}{2}x - \frac{4}{7} )$ = $-4x + \frac{2}{7}$

Now, here Consider the left hand side and simplifying the left side by operating on the like terms,

⇒ $(\frac{-1}{2}x + \frac{6}{7} ) - (\frac{7}{2}x - \frac{4}{7} )$ = $\frac{-1}{2}x + \frac{6}{7} - \frac{7}{2}x + \frac{4}{7} = (\frac{-1}{2}x -\frac{7}{2}x) + (\frac{6}{7} + \frac{4}{7})$

= $(\frac{-1 - 7}{2}x ) + (\frac{6 + 4}{7} ) = \frac{-8x}{2} + \frac{10}{7} \neq -4x + \frac{2}{7}$

Here, Left side of equation ≠ Right side of the equation

Hence, $(\frac{-1}{2}x + \frac{6}{7} ) - (\frac{7}{2}x - \frac{4}{7} )$ ≠ $-4x + \frac{2}{7}$

Please answer correctly !!!!! Will mark Brianliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

BF = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle BCD, H is the Centroid.

Centroid of a triangle divides the median in the ratio 2 : 1.

Therefore, BH : HF = 2 : 1

Let BH = 2x & HF = x

Since, HF = 6.... (given)

So, x = 6

2x = 2*6 = 12

BH = 12

Now,

BF = BH + HF = 12 + 6

BF = 18

Lynne bought a bag of grapefruit, 1 5_ 8 pounds of apples, and 2 __3 16 pounds of bananas. The total weight of her purchases was

solmaris [256]

Answer:

3 11/16 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Lynne bought a bag of grapefruit, 1 5/8 pounds of apples, and 2 3/16 pounds of bananas. The total weight of her purchases was 7 1/2 pounds. How much did the bag of grapefruit weigh?'

The Total weight = Weight of grape fruits + Weight of Apples + Weight of Bananas

Let the weight of the grape fruit = x

7 1/2 = x + 1 5/8 + 2 3/16

x = 7 1/2 - (1 5/8 + 2 3/16)

Lowest Common Denominator = 16

x= 7 1/2 - 3 + ( 10+ 3/16)

x = 7 1/2 - 3 + (13/16)

x = 7 1/2 - 3 13/16

Lowest Common Denominator = 16

x= 4 (8 - 13/16)

x = 4 (-5/16)

x = 3 11/16 pounds

Therefore, the bag of grapefruits weighed 3 11/16 pounds

The cost of 12 oranges and 7 coples is 55.36. Eight oranges and apples cost $3.68. Find the cost

victus00 [196]

Hello there i hope you are having a good day :) Your question : The cost of 12 oranges and 7 couples is 55.36. Eight oranges and apples cost $3.68. Find the cost of each : Firstly you would do oranges = O Apples = A. Then 12 oranges + 7 apples = 5.36 12o + 7A = 5.36 then you would take away from both sides so -12o Take away -12o = 7o = 5.36 - 12A now you would divide this by 7 so 7 cancels each out so you are left with 5.36/ 7 = 0.76 Then it would equal 0.76 - 12o/7 This would equal the amount of apples to be $0.76 each now for the oranges you would do the same that you work out for the apples.

Hopefully that help ya :)
