The left sum would be f0+f1+f2+f3
The right sum would be f1+f2+f3+f4
The trapezoidal rule value is:
(f0+f1)/2 + (f1+f2)/2+(f2+f3)/2 +(f3+f4)/2
This would put the trapezoidal rule in the middle , which makes the answer:
Lower sum < Trapezoidal rule Value < Upper sum
I believe you would need to divide 123.75 by 7.50.
The equation would look something like this:
7.50x=123.75
Where x = # of hours worked
123.75 / 7.50 = 16.5
so x = 16.5
You worked for 16.5 hours
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12 = ?
2(x)^2 - 2(x) - 12
(x)^2 - 6 - x
Multiply ↪1 (-6) = -6
1 + -6 = -5 , right?
-3 + 2 = -1, right?
After we have pulled out the like terms we have to add/subtract! x(x) - 3
Search for the common denominator
2(x) - 3
You can add up 4 for your terms
x + 2 (x - 3)
Make sure you solve this↪ 2 = 0
x + 2 = ?
x + 2 = 0
We have found the first; x = -2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Since, this one has a single variable, I'll make the step easier and quicker
Solve this part ↪ x-3 = 0
If we had the number 3 to your sides we would have found the outcome of the next x
So, the second x is 3
So, therefore your answer would have to be x =-2 ; x = 3 (most likely option C.)
Area of the bottom triangle = 1/2 x 10 x 8.7 = 43.5 cm²
Area of the 3 rectangles = 3(10 x 6) = 180 cm²
Area of the top triangle = 3 (1/2 x10 x 4) = 60 cm²
Total surface are = 43.5 + 180 + 60 = 283.5 cm²
Answer: 283.5 cm²
