Answer:
135 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = 
h(a + b)
where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 9, a = 13 and b = 17 , thus
A = × 9 × (13 + 17)
= 0.5 × 9 × 30
= 135 cm²
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
5-x+6=-2
X=13
1 gallon cost $15
1 quarts cost $4
1 quarts = 1/4 gallon
15x for number of gallon cans
2 cans at $4 each = $8
15x + 8 = 53
Subtract 8 from both sides:
15x = 53-8
15x = 45
Divide both sides by 15:
x = 45/15
x = 3
She bought 3 gallon cans of paint
Plus she bought 2 quart cans, which is equal to a half gallon.
She bought a total of 3.5 gallons of paint.
