Left-handed batters=45

 5    45
__=___
8      x


Cross multiply
5x=360
divide both sides by 5
x=72
Right-handed batters=72

Step 2 (find the number of total batters)
total batters=45+72=117

Step3 (find the ratio of left handed batters to total batters)

Left-handed batters to total batters= 45/117
45/117 can be shortened to 15/39

Answer=15:39

Brian cut a piece of cardboard in the shape of a trapezoid the area of the cut out is 43.5 cm² if the bases are 6 cm And 8.5 cm
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer: the height of the trapezoid is 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is expressed as

Area = 1/2(a + b)h

Where

a and b are the length of The bases are the 2 sides of the trapezoid which are parallel with one another.

h represents the height of the trapezoid.

From the information given,

a = 6 cm

b = 8.5 cm

If the area of the cut out is 43.5 cm², then

53.5 = 1/2(6 + 8.5)h

Cross multiplying by 2, it becomes

43.5 × 2 = (6 + 8.5)h

87 = 14.5h

h = 87/14.5 = 6 cm
