The thing you need to remember is that 25% means 0.25 .
That's the whole problem. The rest is easy.
0.25 x 860 = 215
This is multiplying an even number of negatives together so the answer will always be positive
Answer:
x = 10
TU = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of x, we use the trapezoid mid-segment theorem
The sum of the lengths of the two parallel sides is equal to twice the length of the mid segment
Mathematically, we have this as;
2(2x+ 4) = 2x-4 + 3x + 2
4x + 8 = 5x - 2
5x -4x = 8 + 2
x = 10
TU = 2x + 4 ; = 2(10) + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24
Two points: (-5,7), (0,2)
Find slope: (2-7)/(0+5) = -5/5 = -1
Y intercept is given: 2
Y = -1x + 2
