Answer:

(B) \dfrac12H (B+D)

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Area of a trapezoid }= \dfrac12 ($Sum of the parallel sides) \times $Height\\Parallel Sides = B and D\\Height =H\\Therefore:\\\text{Area of the trapezoid }= \dfrac12 (B+D) H

The correct option is B.

The ratio of Dawn to Mandy's savings is 6 : 7. The ratio of Mandy to Belle's savings is 2 : 3. Find the ratio of Dawn to Belle's
Mila [183]

The savings are illustrations of ratio, and the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings in the simplest ratio is 4 : 7

<h3>How to determine the ratio?</h3>

The given ratios are:

Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7

Mandy : Belle = 2 : 3

Multiply the second ratio by 3.5.

So, we have:

Mandy : Belle = 2 * 3.5 : 3 * 3.5

Evaluate

Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5

So, we have:

Dawn : Mandy = 6 : 7

Mandy : Belle = 7 : 10.5

Mandy's ratios in both equation are the same.

So, we have:

Dawn : Mandy : Belle = 6 : 7 : 10.5

Remove Mandy's ratio

Dawn : Belle = 6 : 10.5

Simplify

Dawn : Belle = 4 : 7

Hence, the ratio of Dawn to Belle's savings is 4 : 7

In Europe, gasoline efficiency is measured in km/L. If your car's gas mileage is 31.0mi/gal , how many liters of gasoline would
maw [93]
We need to convert the mileage from mi/gal units into to km/L units using the conversion factors.

(31.0 mi/gal) x (1 km / 0.6214 mi) x (1 gal / 3.78 L) = 13.20 km/L

Next, we divide the distance by the mileage. 
(142 km) / (13.20 km/L) = 10.79 L

<span>Therefore, you need 10.79 liters of gasoline.</span>

Find the measure of the indicator arc
harina [27]

Answer:

m(WXY) = 224°

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of inscribed angle = ½ the measure of intercepted arc

Therefore:

m<C = ½*m(WXY)

112° = ½*m(WXY) (substitution)

Multiply both sides by 2

2*112° = m(WXY)

224° = m(WXY)

m(WXY) = 224°

Find the value of x, y and z
tangare [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x = 9x - 7

-x = -7

x = 7

9(7)-7= 63-7=56

8(7)= 56

13y+7+56=180

13y+63=180

13y=117

y=9

13(9)+7= 117+7= 124

5y-11+56=90

5y+45=90

5y=45

y=9

5(9)-11+9(7)-7= z

45-11+63-7=z

34+56=z

90=z
