The formula for the area A of a trapezoid is A=1/2(b1+b2)h, where b1 and b2 represents the lengths of the bases and h represents

the height. Which equation can be used to find the height of a trapezoid?
A. h=2A-b1-b2
B. h=2A/b1+b2
C. h=A(b1+b2)/2
D. h=A-2/b1-b2

Answer:

B. h=2A/(b1+b2) . . . . parentheses are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the equation by the inverse of the coefficient of h. That coefficient is (b1 +b2)/2, so its inverse is 2/(b1 +b2). Parentheses are needed.

... 2A/(b1 +b2) = h

<em>Comment on the answer choices</em>

As written, <em>none of them are correct</em>. The denominator can only be written without parentheses if the division bar is horizontal, and so serves also as a grouping symbol.

58,187.5 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cm : 25 m

7 cm = 25 × 7 m

7 × 25 = 175 m

13.3 × 25 = 332.5 m

area = 332.5 m × 175 m

A freight train leaves a station and travels north at 60 mph. 4 hours ​later, a passenger train leaves on a parallel track and t
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

first do:

60mph * 4 hours= 240mi

Let D = the distance the passenger train has to  

travel to catch the freight train

Start a stopwatch when the passenger train leaves

Let t = the time on the stopwatch when they meet

Equation for freight train:

d-240=60t

Equation for passenger train:

d=100t

all together:

100t-240=60t

we can do 100t-60t because they both have (t)= 40t

40t=240 *now divide 240 by 40= 6

THEN do:

D= 100mph x 6= 600mi

They will meet 600 mi from the station

to check:

d-240=60t x 6

600-240= 360

60 x 6= 360

360=360

Answer:

33) $8440

34) $67,964.62

Step-by-step explanation:

33) The interest on 1 for 270 days is ...

... I = Prt = 1×0.09×(270/360) = 0.0675

so the proceeds from a loan with a face value of 1 will be

... 1 - 0.0675 = 0.9325

We want to find the face value of a loan with proceeds of $7870.30, so we need to solve the equation ...

... $7870.30 = P×0.9325

... P = $7870.30/0.9325 = $8440

34) The discount is computed from ...

... I = Prt = 70,000×0.063×(24/52) ≈ 2035.38

Then the amount Smith will pay for the T-bill is ...

... $70,000 -2035.38 = $67,964.62
