x+y=12

x-y=4

x=y-4

y-4+y=12

2y-4=12

2y=16

y=8

x=8-4=8

8+4=12

the 2 numbers are 8 & 4

You are given the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
You can pick any two points on table
Let’s choose (9,2) and (3,-2)
Plug in the values into formula
m = (-2-2)/(3-9)
m = -4/-6
Simplify: m = 2/3

Solution: m = 2/3

The following is the formula for finding the area (A) of a trapezoid with height (h) and bases (b1) and (b2). A = 1/2h(b1 + b2)

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

<em>Correct choice: B</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation Solving</u>

The area of a trapezoid with height h and bases b1 and b2 is given by:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2)$

We must solve this formula for h.

First, multiply by 2 to eliminate denominators:

$\displaystyle 2A=h(b_1+b_2)$

Now, divide by b1+b2:

$\displaystyle \frac{2A}{b_1+b_2}=h$

Swapping sides:

$\displaystyle h=\frac{2A}{b_1+b_2}$

Correct choice: B
