Answer:
129.5 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = h(a + b)
where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 7, a = 15 and b = 22 , thus
A = × 7 × (15 + 22)
= 0.5 × 7 × 37
= 129.5
I believe the answer is 144. Because the exponent of 2 is on the outside of the parentheses, we multiply a and b first. 3 times 4 is 12 and 12^2 is 144
9a-4y
because -5y and a positive Y combine to a -4y
Answer:
(-1, -1) and (2, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute for y in the first equation and solve the quadratic.
x = x^2 -2
x^2 -x -2 = 0 . . . . subtract x
(x -2)(x +1) = 0 . . . .factor
Solutions are the values of x that make these factors be zero:
x = 2, x = -1
Since y=x, the solutions are ...
(x, y) = (-1, -1) and (2, 2)
Answer: 276
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 1/3 by 4/4 to make it similar to 5/12 that way you can add them. because the denominator is different from each other you can’t add them. once you do that you get 4/12, you then add 5/12 and that equals 9/12. in order to get to 12/12 you need 3/12 more. this 3/12 represents the 69 guest that chose vegetarian. the 5/12 represents the the guest who chose chicken and the 4/12 represents the ones who chose beef. now that you know 69 people is the same as 3/12 of all the guest. you then realize that 9 is divisible by 3. so you multiply 69 by 3 because 3 goes into 9 3 times. which gives you 207. 207 represents 9/12. and we already know 69 represents 3/12. so you add them together and get 276. sorry if that was confusing but that’s the best way i can explain it.
