Trapezoidal is involving averageing the heights
the 4 intervals are
[0,4] and [4,7.2] and [7.2,8.6] and [8.6,9]

the area of each trapezoid is (v(t1)+v(t2))/2 times width

for the first interval
the average between 0 and 0.4 is 0.2
the width is 4
4(0.2)=0.8

2nd
average between 0.4 and 1 is 0.7
width is 3.2
3.2 times 0.7=2.24

3rd
average betwen 1.0 and 1.5 is 1.25
width is 1.4
1.4 times 1.25=1.75

4th
average betwen 1.5 and 2 is 1.75
width is 0.4
0.4 times 1.74=0.7

add them all up
0.8+2.24+1.75+0.7=5.49

5.49
t=time
v(t)=speed
so the area under the curve is distance
covered 5.49 meters

Suppose 20 students delegates will attend the conference. Each school should be represented fairly in relation to it's populatio
algol [13]

Answer:

To find out the number coming from each school, you need to use the proportion of the school's population out of the population of all three.

Total population = 618 + 378 + 204

= 1,200 students

North Middle school:

= 618/1,200 * 20

= 10 students

Central Middle School:

= 378 / 1,200 * 20

= 6 students

South Middle School:

= 204/1,200 * 20

= 4 students

A farmer wants to plant an apple orchard. His design consists of 10 rows of trees, where each row is 29.79 feet long. When he ge
Elis [28]
First divide 29.79 feet by 6
\frac{29.79}{6} = 4.97
But since you can't plant only a fraction of a tree, you can plant a maximum of 4 trees per row.
Now there are ten rows so...
10×4 = 40
You can plant 40 trees at the maximum.
