Answer:

x = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that SV is the angle bisector of ∠RST, then

∠RSV = ∠TSV, thus

∠RSV + ∠TSV = ∠RST ← substitute values

2x + 8 + 2x + 8 = 6x - 26, that is

4x + 16 = 6x - 26 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

- 2x + 16 = - 26 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

- 2x = - 42 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = 21

The volume of the given trapezoidal prism is 312 cubic units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

To find the volume of a trapezoidal prism, we multiply the area of the trapezoidal surface with the height of the prism.

The area of a trapezoidal surface, $A = \frac{a+b}{2} (h).$

a and b are the lengths of the upper and lower bases and h is the height of the trapezoid.

For the given trapezoid, a is 5 units long and b is 8 units long while height, h is 4 units.

The area of the trapezoidal surface, $A = \frac{5+8}{2} (4) = 6.5(4) = 26.$

So the area of the trapezoidal surface is 26 square units.

Step 2:

To determine the volume of the prism, we multiply the area of the trapezoidal surface with the height of the prism.

The area is 26 square units and the height of the prism is 12 units.

The volume of the prism, $V= 26(12) = 312.$

The volume of the given trapezoidal prism is 312 cubic units.

Division is like sharing so 85 things that are shared between 5 people
85÷5=17 that is how much each person gets
so 17 is your answer

Which polynomial is represented by the algebra tiles?

kogti [31]

A. 2x2 – 4x – 6

Looking at the diagram, there two positive x's to the power of 2, and there are four negative x and six minus signs. Inspecting it and adding all the same terms, you will get the quadratic expression 2x^2 - 4x - 6.
