A daycare charges a base fee of 3 dollars plus 0.50 dollars per minute for late (after closing time) pick-ups. Albin had to pay

10.50 dollars for a late pick-up. Albin uses the equation, 10.50 = 0.50 a + 3 to represent the situation. What does the variable a represent in the equation?

Answer:

<h2>The time in minutes for late pick ups</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression for the situation

10.50 = 0.50 a + 3

The variable "a" represents the time in minutes for late pick ups.

The expression is similar to the equation of a straight line

y=mx+c    

when compared to the given expression

we can state that

y= 10.5 which is the outcome of the situation

m= gradient which is 0.5

a= independent variable which is the time in minutes

c= 3 which is the constant term

The area of a trapezoid is 69.6 in2 and its altitude is 8.7 in. Find the perimeter of the trapezoid if the sum of its legs is eq
BaLLatris [955]
1. To solve this problem, you must apply the formula for calculate the area of the trapezoid, which is:
 
 A=(B+b)h/2
 
 A is the area of the trapezoid (A=69.6 in²).
 (B+b) is the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.
 h is the height of the trapezoid (h=8.7 in).
 
 2. When you clear the sum of the bases (B+b), you have:
 
 A=(B+b)h/2
 2A=<span>(B+b)h
</span><span> (B+b)=2A/h
</span> (B+b)=2(69.6 in²)/(8.7 in)
 (B+b)=16 in
 
 3. The problem says that <span>the sum of its legs is equal to the sum of its bases, therefore, the perimeter is:
</span> 
 Sum of the legs=Sum of the bases (B+b)=16 in
 
 Perimeter=16 in+16 in
 Perimeter=32 in
