-7x + 6 = 27

-7x = 21 (Subtract 6 from both sides)

x = -3 (Divide -7 from both sides)

The length of one base of a trapezoid is 19 less than five times the length of the other base. If the trapezoid has a height of

ycow [4]

The length of the longer base is 41 ft.

Explanation

Lets assume, length of one base is $x$ ft.

As, another base is 19 less than five times the length of this base, so the length of another base $= (5x- 19) ft.$

The trapezoid has a height of 18 ft and area of 477 ft²

Formula for Area of trapezoid, $A=\frac{1}{2} (a+b)*h$ , where $a, b$ = Two bases of trapezoid and $h$ = height of the trapezoid.

Given in the question: $A= 477$ and $h= 18$

We have also two bases as: $a= x$ and $b= 5x-19$

So, according to the above formula...

$A= \frac{1}{2}(a+b)h\\\\ 477=\frac{1}{2}(x+5x-19)*18\\\\ 477=9(6x-19)\\\\477= 54x-171\\\\477+171=54x\\\\648=54x\\\\x=\frac{648}{54} = 12$

So, length of one base is $12 ft$ and another base $=(5*12-19)ft =(60-19)ft = 41 ft$

That means, the length of the longer base is 41 ft.

Solve graphically the inequality \[ x ≥ 2 \]

Xelga [282]

1) Graph the corresponding equation $ x = 2 $; this will split the plane into two regions. One of the region represents the solution set.

2) Select a point situated in any of the two regions obtained and test the inequality. If the point selected is a solution, then all the region is the solution set. If the selected point is not a solution, then the other (second) region represents the solution set.

3) Test: In this example, let us for example select the point with coordinates (3 , 2) which is in the region to the right of the line x = 2. If you substitute x in the inequality $ x ≥ 2 $ by 3 it becomes $ 3 ≥ 2 $ which is a true statement and therefore (3 , 2) is a solution. Hence, we can conclude that the region to the right of the vertical line x = 2 is a solution set including the line itself which is shown as a solid line because of the inequality symbol $ ≥ $ contains the $ = $ symbol. The solution set is represented by the blue hash region in the graph below including the line x = 2.
