Answer:11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Subtract</em> 2/3x on both sides.
Combine 5/3x and -2/3x to get x.
Subtract 4 from both sides. <em>Any value</em> subtracted from zero results in its negative value.
Answer:
122 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The two intersecting lines are parallel for this problem, which means that the angle next to angle3 is the same degree measure as the one that is 58 degrees.
Also, remember that two angles next to each other on a straight line are supplementary, meaning that they add to 180 degrees.
When keeping these two things in mind, you can solve like this:
180 = angle3 + 58
180 - 58 = angle3
angle3 = 122
122 degrees

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the shorter base in inches. Then the longer base has length x+6. The area of the trapezoid is given by the formula ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
Filling in the values we know, we have ...
48 = (1/2)(x +(x+6))(6)
16 = 2x +6 . . . . . divide by 3
10 = 2x . . . . . . . . subtract 6
5 = x . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
(x+6) = 11 . . . . . . find the longer base
The lengths of the bases are 5 inches and 11 inches. We found them by solving an equation relating area to base length.
