The area of trapezoid TRAP is 100 m squared
Anastasy [175]
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________

Area of a trapezoid, "A" = (1/2) ( b₁ + b₂) h ;
______________________________________________
or, write as:  A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2 ;
___________________________________
in which:  A = area;
              b₁ = length of "base 1" (choose either one of the 2 (two bases);
              b₂ = length of "base 2" (use the base that is remaining);
              h = height of trapezoid;
____________________________________________
From the information given: 
___________________________
A = 100 m² ; 
h = 5 m
b₁ = 10 m
b₂ =  x 
___________________________
Find "x", which is:  "b₂" ;
__________________________
      A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2  ;
_____________________________
Plug in our known values; and plug in "x" for "b₂" ; and solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
  100 m² = [(10m + x) (5m)] / 2  ; Solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
          (10m + x) (5m) = (2)* (100m²) ;
_________________________________________________________
             (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
___________________________________________
Note:  The distributive property of multiplication:
____________________________________________
    a(b+c) = ab + ac ;
 
    a(b−c) = ab <span>− ac ;
</span>____________________________________________

  We have:  (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m²  ;
____________________________________________
So:    (5m) (10m + x) =  (5m*10m) + (5m * x) ;
                           
                               =  50m² + (5m)x  ;
_______________________________________________
     →  50m² + (5m)x = 200m²  ; 
_______________________________________________
Divide the ENTIRE equation by "5m" ;
_______________________________________________
     → { 50m² + (5m)x } / 5m = (200m² / 5m) ;
_______________________________________________
     →  10m + x   = 40m ; 
________________________________________________
Now, subtract "10m" from EACH side of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________
     →  10m + x  − 10m  =  40m − 10m ;

to get:

                →    x  =  30 m  ; which is our answer.
___________________________________________________
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

3/70

Step-by-step explanation:

3 orange,6 pink , 1 yellow , and 5 red = 15

P(pink) = number of pink/ total = 6/15 = 3/5

Then without putting it back

3 orange,5 pink , 1 yellow , and 5 red = 14

P(yellow) = number of yellow/ total = 1/14

P(pink, no replacement, yellow) = 3/5*1/14 = 3/70

The square of a number, x, is 16 less than eight times the number. What is the number? Type the correct answer in the box. Use n
liraira [26]

Given :

The square of a number, x, is 16 less than eight times the number.

To Find :

The value of x .

Solution :

The mathematical equation with all given data is :

x^2=8x-16\\\\x^2-8x+16=0\\\\x^2-4x-4x+16=0\\\\x(x-4)-4(x-4)=0\\\\(x-4)^2=0\\\\x=4

Therefore , the value of x is 4 .

Hence , this is the required solution .
