Answer:

48 sq. in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for finding trapezoid area: A = 1/2(h)(b1 + b2)

They said the median of a trapezoid is equal to half the sum of the bases, so multiply the median by 2 to get the sum of the bases.

Sum of the bases = 8(2) = 16

Now plug what you have into the equation to find the area: A = 1/2(6)(16)

Simplify to get: 48

Hope this helps!

It is the same as the area of a rectangle with those dimensions:
.. Area = (6 in)*(8 in) = 48 in^2

Find the slope of line that is parallel to -2x=3y+5
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: m = -\frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the equation into slope-intercept form: -3y = 2x + 5

Reduce: y = -\frac{2}{3}x -\frac{5}{3}

Your parallel slope is: -\frac{2}{3}

The cost for x number of students to attend an after school sporting event can be represented bu the functon C(x). If C(124) = 5
lara [203]
Alright! Given that C(x) is Cost(Students) = 558, we can eliminate:

2. 558 students paid to attend the event.
5. The event generated $124 from student revenue.

Now, in order to find the cost per student we simply divide 124 on both sides:

\frac{C(124)}{124} =  \frac{558}{124}

124 cancels on the left and 558/124 is 4.5 or $4.50. 

Since we just determined the cost of one student, we can eliminate 3.

To check if 124 students paid, we simply add the cost to the equation and check:

4.5(124) = 558

558 = 558 √

It checks out, so we determined that both 1 and 4 are correct.

PLZ HELP!!!! There is a box in your kitchen pantry that is a rectangular prism. Its volume is 64 cubic inches. How many differen
WINSTONCH [101]
We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by:
V = A · h
where:
A = surface area 
h = height

Therefore, you can solve for A:
A = V / h
   = 64 / h

Now, you need to ask yourself by how many numbers you can divide 64. The possible heights are 64, 32, 16, 8, 4, 2 and 1.

Hence:
A) there are 7 possible surface areas (one for each possible height).

B) the <span>maximum Area will be that of the box with the minimum height:
A = 64 / 1 = 64

C) the minimum Area will be that of the box with the maximum height:
A = 64 / 64 = 1</span>
