Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the median of a trapezoid equals one-half the sum of the lengths of the bases.

$\begin{array}{rcl}AB & = & \frac{1}{2}(JK + LM)\\\\& = & \frac{1}{2}(19 + 39)\\\\& = & \frac{1}{2}\times 58\\\\& = & \mathbf{29}\\\end{array}$

Answer:

50 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths in a 30-60-90 triangle have the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. The longest side is 2 times the length of the shortest side.

In this geometry, that means the length of the escalator is 2 times its height, so is ...

x = 2(25 ft)

x = 50 ft . . . . . distance a person travels

Stells [14]

$\frac{a - c}{x - a}$ = m Multiply both sides by (x - a)
a - c = m (x - a) Use the Distributive Property
a - c = mx - ma Add ma to both sides
a - c + ma = mx Divide both sides by m
$\frac{a - c + ma}{m}$ = x Switch the sides to make it easier to read
x = <span> $\frac{a - c + ma}{m}$ </span>
