well, keeping in mind that a year has 12 months, that means that 8 months is 8/12 of a year, when Mrs Rojas pull her money out.
well, she put in 6000 bucks, got back 160 extra, that's the interest earned in the 8 months.
what if she had left her money for 1 whole year, then
so had she left it in for a year, she'd have gotten 6240, namely 240 in interest, well, what fraction of a year's interest was earned? or worded differently, what fraction is 160(8 months) of 240(1 year)?
A regular trapezoid is shown in the picture attached.
We know that:
DC = minor base = 4
AB = major base = 7
AD = BC = lateral sides or legs = 5
Since the two legs have the same length, the trapezoid is isosceles and we can calculate AH by the formula:
AH = (AB - DC) ÷ 2
= (7 - 5) ÷ 2
= 2 ÷ 2
= 1
Now, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem in order to calculate DH:
DH = √(AD² - AH²)
= √(5² - 1²)
= √(25 - 1)
= √24
= 2√6
Last, we have all the information needed in order to calculate the area by the formula:
A = (7 + 5) × 2√6 ÷ 2
= 12√6
The area of the regular trapezoid is 12√6 square units.
