15 + 1 = x/6
16 = x/6
16 * 6 = x
x = 96
Answer: A)
Answer:
x = 10, AB = 57
Step-by-step explanation:
In a trapezoid, the length of the median is one-half the sum of the lengths of the bases. From this, we have:
let length of one piece = x
length of other piece = 236-x
one piece is three times the length of the other
x=3(236-x)
x=708-3x
4x=708
x=177
so first piece is 177 inches long and second piece is (236-177)= 59 inches long
Answer:
Length = 21
Width = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the formula for perimeter is:
P=2W+2L
And we also know that:
L=W+5
So then we put all that we know in the formula:
74=2W+2(W+5)
Now we expand the brackets and do some algebra:
74=4W+10 (-10)
64=4W (÷4)
16=W
Now that we know the width we can pop that into the length equation:
L=16+5
L=21
