Answer: Side p = 33.9 mi

Step-by-step explanation: The figure in the question is a trapezoid with the area already given as 792.965.

The unknown side p is one of the two bases (parallel lines) in the trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is given as

Area of trapezoid = {(a + b)/2} x H

Where H is the vertical height and a and b are the parallel lines

The area of the trapezoid can now be properly expressed as

792.965 = {(15.2 + p)/2} x 32.3

By cross multiplication we now have

792.965/32.3 = (15.2 + p)/2

(792.965/32.3) x 2 = 15.2 + p

49.1 = 15.2 + p

Subtract 15.2 from both sides of the equation

33.9 = p

Therefore the missing length (side p) equals 33.9 mi

What is the factored form of 3x + 21x-24?

anastassius [24]

Answer:

factorize form of the equation is $24(x-1)=0$ , where $x=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Equation:

$3x + 21x-24=0$

Adding the terms of 'x' and taking constants on the other side.

$24x-24=0$

The sign of the constant will change on changing the side of it.

$24x=24$

$x=\frac{24}{24}$

$x=1$

So, the value of 'x' is 1

The factorized form of the equation can be made by taking the common value from the equation i.e

$24x-24=0\\$

$24(x-1)=0$

Which is the equation of the given line in slope-intercept form? (-1, 2) and (1, -4)

Natalka [10]

1. Find the slope using the slope formula.
$\frac{2 - ( - 4)}{ - 1 - 1} = \frac{2 + 4}{ - 2} = - \frac{6}{2} = - \frac{3}{1} = - 3$
2. Plug that slope and either point into an equation in slope-intercept form and solve for b.
$2 = - 3( - 1) + b \\ 2 = 3 + b \\ - 1 = b$
3. Now write your answer as a slope-intercept form equation
$y = - 3x - 1$

10. The following frequency table contains the total number of deaths worldwide as a result of earthquakes from 2000 to 2012.Yea

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The total frequency of deaths is 97,118.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total frequency is found by summing up the frequency of 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009:

frequency = 6,605 + 702 + 88,011 + 1,790

frequency = 97,118.
