Answer:
44 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid with bases b₁ and b₂ and height h is given by the formula

If you're wondering how we get this formula, check the attached illustration (remember the area of a parallelogram is its base multiplied by its height)! Moving on to our trapezoid, the pairs of points (-5,-3)(4,-3) and (6,-7)(-7,-7) form two horizontal segments, which form b₁ and b₂, and our height is the distance between the y-coordinates -3 and -7, which is 4. We can find b₁ and b₂ by finding the distance between the x coordinates in their pairs of points:

Putting it altogether:

So the area of our trapezoid is 44.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
No, a triangle cannot be constructed with sides of 2 in., 3 in., and 6 in.
For three line segments to be able to form any triangle you must be able to take any two sides, add their length and this sum be greater than the remaining side.
Answer:
40 + 4x
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for perimeter:
( length * 2 )+(width * 2)
you know that the length and width will be increased by the same number so you can call that X.
((length + x)*2) + ((width + x) * 2)
then substitute length and width
((15+x)*2) + ((5+x)*2))
you can simplify this a bit more
30 + 2x + 10 + 2x
40 +4x
Goodluck with your schoolwork/homework!
