Answer:
A: 360
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the trapezoid into 2 shapes
Then find the area of the rectangle on the left:
18 × 15 = 270 square yards
Now for the triangle, first find the base by subtracting the 2 parallel lines:
25 - 15 = 10 yards
0.5(10 × 18) = 90 square yards
Add both areas to find total area:
270 + 90 = 360 square yards
All this can be seen in the figure below:
Answer:
-46y+48x
Step-by-step explanation:
21 because 9+10 is actually 21
Answer:
A) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to get this but this is how I did it:
1. Multiply the second equation by 1/4 to get the same fraction for y as the one in the first equation
1/4 x + 1/8 y = 2
1/4 (1/3 x + 1/2 y = 4)
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
2. Subtract the first equation from the new equation
1/12 x + 1/8 y = 1
<u> - 1/4 x - 1/8 y = -2</u>
-1/6 x= -1
3. Divide both sides by -1/6
<u>-1/6</u> x= <u>-1</u>
-1/6 -1/6
x = 6
4. Substitute 4 in for x in the original equation:
1/4 (6) + 1/8y = 2
6/4 + 1/8y = 2
1/8y = 1/2
y = 4
