Answer:

126 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of apples picked by Mary=m

Cindy picks 6 times as many as Mary= 6Xm=6m

John picks 8 times as many as Mary= 8Xm=8m

Altogether they picked a total of 135 apples.

m+6m+8m=135

15m=135

m=135/15

m=9

We want to determine how many apples John and Cindy Picked.

John Picked 6m apples

Cindy Picked 8m apples

Their combined total= 6m+8m =14m

Since m=9

14m =14 X9 =126 apples

John and Cindy picked a total of 126 apples

Find the length of the height of the right trapezoid shown below, if it has the greatest possible area and its perimeter is equa

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The height of the right trapezoid is $\frac{6}{5+\sqrt{3}}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the height of the right trapezoid in units

we know that

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

$P=AB+BC+CD+DH+HA$

we have

$P=6\ units$

$AB=BC=CH=HA=x$ ---> because is a square

substitute

$6=x+x+CD+DH+x$

$6=3x+CD+DH$ -----> equation A

<em>In the right triangle CDH</em>

$sin(30\°)=\frac{CH}{CD}$

$sin(30\°)=\frac{1}{2}$

so

Remember that $CH=x$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{x}{CD}$

$CD=2x$

$tan(30\°)=\frac{CH}{DH}$

$tan(30\°)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}$

so

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{3}=\frac{x}{DH}$

$DH=x\sqrt{3}$

substitute the values in the equation A

$6=3x+CD+DH$ -----> equation A

$CD=2x$

$DH=x\sqrt{3}$

$6=3x+2x+x\sqrt{3}$

$6=5x+x\sqrt{3}$

$6=x[5+\sqrt{3}]$

$x=\frac{6}{5+\sqrt{3}}\ units$
