Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x.

$6 - 6x = 4x - 44$

Subtract 6 from BOTH sides

$6 - 6 = 4x - 44 - 6$

Simplify.

$-6x = 4x - 50$

Subtract 4x from BOTH sides.

$-6x - 4x = 4x - 50 - 4x$

Simplify again.

$-10x = -50$

Divide BOTH sides by -10.

$\frac{-10x}{-10} = \frac{-50}{-10}$

Simplify once more...

$x=5$

A trapezoid has a base of two and six and an area of 24 square units. What is the height?

Nezavi [6.7K]

$\bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} a,b=&\stackrel{bases}{parallel}\\ &sides\\ h=&height\\ \cline{1-2} a=&2\\ b=&6\\ A=&24 \end{cases}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(2+6)}{2}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(8)}{2} \\\\\\ 24=4h\implies \cfrac{24}{4}=h\implies 6=h$
