A playground has the shape of a trapezoid.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]3 years ago

Answer:

  • short base: 6 yards
  • long base: 8 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Our understanding of your figure is shown below.

The question says the "shortest side" and the "width" have the same dimension. If the "width" is a reference to "height 6 yards", then it seems the "shortest side" is 6 yards. Since the slant sides are longer than the height, the "shortest side" is also the "short base."

The short base is 6 yards.

__

The long base overhangs the short base by 1 yard on either end, so it is a total of 2 yards longer than the short base. It it 6+2 = 8 yards long.

The long base is 8 yards.

Find the solution of the system of equations.<br>6x + 8y = -8<br>x + 4y = 4<br>( , )​
ladessa [460]

Answer:

the solution is (-4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x + 8y = -8

x + 4y = 4

... can be solved using elimination by addition and subtraction, among other methods.  Multiply the second equation by -2 to obtain

6x + 8y = -8

-2x - 8y = -8

Combining these results in

4x = -16.  Thus, x = -4.

Substituting -4 for x in x + 4y = 4 results in

-4 + 4y = 4, or 4y = 8, or y = 2

Then the solution is (-4, 2)

2x + 3y = 26 3x + 5y = 40<br>find x and y I will give brainliest
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

x = 10 and y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first equation by 5 and 2nd equation by 3 then subtract equation 1 and 2, we get,

10x+15y= 130

9x+15y=120

x= 10

substituting the value of x in equation 1 we get

2x + 3y = 26

2*10 + 3y = 26

3y = 26-20

y =6/3

y= 2.i hope this helps

What is the anwser to the problem
torisob [31]

8 ) 712

8 goes into 71 8 times; the product of 8 and 8 is 64.

Subtracting this 64 from 71, we get 7, to which we append 2: 8 ) 72.

8 divides evenly into 72: 9.

Thus, the desired quotient is 89.
