Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
given data;
B = 16m
b =8 m
height H = 4 m
length L = 32 m
volume of any right cylinder = (Area of bottom) \times (length)
Volume = A* L
The area of a trapezoid is



therefore volume is given as
volume = 48*32

You got the right answers!

Answer:
The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a triangle is given by:
(1)
Where:
b: is the base
h: is the altitude = 10 cm
If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:

We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:

Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:

Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.
I hope it helps you!
Since they are similar, you need to find the ratio of similarity (I made up the term, there is probably a correct one that I can’t remember).
If you divide 16/40, you’ll find that that ratio is 2.5. So then you just multiply 16 x 2.5. You’ll get 18.
18 is the length of the top of the trapezoid.
You set 18=2x+4 and solve it algebraically. Subtract 4 from both sides.
14=2x
Divide by 2 and x=7
(You can also check that the ratio is right by 16/18 is the same decimal value as 40/45. You’ll get .88888...)
Assuming they mean the fraction is 24/30 the answer is 0.8 (24÷30 is the equation to use)
