No 20.0000004 cannot be rational.
Given, Customers pay $4 to enter the pumpkin patch.
And also given, customers pay $3 per pound for the pumpkins.
Given, $y be the total cost and there are x pounds of pumpkins.
The cost for pumpkin per pound = $3.
Therefore, the cost for x pound pumpkins = $(3x)
As the total cost includes the payment for entering the patch also,
So the total cost y = 3x + 4
We have got the required equation.
The equation to model the total cost is y = 3x+4.
There was a 20% decrease
48/60 × 100 = 80%
100 - 80 = 20%
1. You have that:
- The trapezoids are similar.
- The larger base of the smaller trapezoid is 18 m and its area is 310 m².
- The larger base of the larger trapezoid is 32 m.
2. Then:
Sides=18/32
Sides=9/16
Area=(9/16)²
Area=81/256
3. Now, you can find the area of the larger trapezoid, as below:
81/256=310/x
81x=(310)(256)
x=79360/81
x=980 m²
Therefore, the answer is: The area of the larger trapezoid is 980 m².
