A regular trapezoid is shown in the picture attached.
We know that:
DC = minor base = 4
AB = major base = 7
AD = BC = lateral sides or legs = 5
Since the two legs have the same length, the trapezoid is isosceles and we can calculate AH by the formula:
AH = (AB - DC) ÷ 2
= (7 - 5) ÷ 2
= 2 ÷ 2
= 1
Now, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem in order to calculate DH:
DH = √(AD² - AH²)
= √(5² - 1²)
= √(25 - 1)
= √24
= 2√6
Last, we have all the information needed in order to calculate the area by the formula:
A = (7 + 5) × 2√6 ÷ 2
= 12√6
The area of the regular trapezoid is
12√6 square units.
Let x = pounds of $12 per pound coffee
then
20-x = pounds of $9 per pound coffee
.
12x + 9(20-x) = 10(20)
12x + 180 - 9x = 200
3x + 180 = 200
3x = 20
x = 20/3
x = 6 and 2/3 pounds of $12 per pound coffee
.
Amount of $9 per pound coffee:
20-x = 20-20/3 = 60/3 - 20/3 = 40/3
or
13 and 1/3 pounds of $9 per pound coffee
Answer:
$750
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up the equation 30x + 50y = z where x = the amount of small dogs, y = the amount of big dogs, and z = the total.
After plugging in the x and y values to solve for z, we are left with the following equation:
30(15) + 50(6) = 750
Answer:
Cheetahs can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 3.4 seconds and reach a top speed of 70 miles per hour. While they are the fastest land animal in the world, they can only maintain their speed for only 20 to 30 seconds.
