The speed of Ben is 6 m/s greater than the speed of Emma. Ben rides 100m when Emma rides 76 m.

Mathematics

Answer: The speed of Ben, x= 25m/s


Step-by-step explanation:

Key concept: Ben rides 100 m and Emma rides 76 m in the same time.

Step 1: Suppose, the speed of Ben is x m/s.

Since the speed of Ben is 6 m/s greater than the speed of Emma,  

So the speed of Emma would be (x-6) m/s.

Step 2: Calculate time for each and equate them as follow:

100/x= 76/(x-6)

After cross multiplying, we get:

100(x-6)=76x

100x-76x=600

24x=600

x= 25

The question states that both parts of Noshi's desk were shaped like trapezoids and both had a height of 3.

We know that the formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases of the trapezoid and h is the height. Note: This is like any other form of trying to find the area, because we are doing base times height, however, we need to divide the sum of the bases by 2 to find the average base length.

Let's call the first trapezoid on the left Trapezoid A and the second slanted trapezoid Trapezoid B.

Area of Trapezoid A = (a+b)/2 * h = (5+8)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
Area of Trapezoid B = (a+b)/2 * h = (4+9)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet

To find the area of Noshi's total desk, we simply need to add the areas of Trapezoid A and Trapezoid B together.

19.5 feet + 19.5 feet = 39 feet

Therefore, the area of Noshi's desk is 39 feet.

Hope this helps! :)

The area of the triangle below is 3/40
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

b = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is given by

A = 1/2 bh

3/ 40 = 1/2 b ( 1/5)

Multiply

3/40 = 1/10 b

Multiply each side by 10

10 *3/40 = 10* 1/10 b

3/4 = b
