Lining up the trapezoids you need to notice that you have measurements for the LEFT side of both trapezoids. These measurements will be used to set up the ratio of small to large. 8/12 = 2/3 is the ratio of small trapezoid to large trapezoid.
To find a: 8/12 = 12/a; cross multiply; 8a = 144, divide both sides by 8; a = 18
To find b: 8/12 = b/6; cross multiply; 12b = 48, divide both sides by 12; b = 4
To find c: 8/12 =c/15; cross multiply; 12c =120, divide both sides by 12; c = 10

Instead of using 8/12 you could have used the reduced version, 2/3.

Subtract the following polynomials. Write answer in a-b-c-d order. From 4a+7b-12c subtract 8a-9b+12d
ozzi

(4a+7b-12c)-(8a-9b+12d)\\4a+7b-12c-8a+9b-12d

Negative multiply negative = Positive

Negative multiply positive = negative

-8a+4a+9b+7b-12c-12d\\-4a+16b-12c-12d

Thus the answer is -4a + 16b - 12c - 12d.
