Hi,
Let Sydney's age be x.
Devaughn=(x-15)
x+(x-15)=37
x+x-15=37
2x-15=37
2x=37+15
2x=52
x=52/2
x=26
Sydney is 26 years old.
Hope this Helps you.
This question is nasty. It sounds like you should be finding area of the figure you see. I'll do that first, although I don't think it's the right answer. (But it might be).
Area Trapezoid = (b1 + b2) * h / 2
b1 = 8
b2 = 12
h = 5
Area Trapezoid = (8 + 12 ) * 5 / 2
Area Trapezoid = 20 * 5/2
Area = 50 square feet.
The problem is that no lumber yard will cut that for you without charging you. The practical answer is 12 * 5 = 60 square feet is what you will have to buy. Then you cut out the triangles for yourself.
Without seeing the picture, we don't know how DE and UV are related.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
I typed it into a graphing calculator. You could also choose a point (I choose (4,0) ) then plug it into each equation In the answers until you get back the numbers of the point you choose to represent x and y. For example
