Perimiter=base1+base2+side1+side2

side1=side2=25
base1=16
base2=30
perimiter=16+30+25+25=96 cm
area of trapezoid=1/2 height times (base1 +base 2)

base 1=16
base2=30

find height
isosolees so
30-16=14
14/2=7
find heigh using:
pythagorean theorem
25^2=7^2+h^2
625=49+x^2
subtract 49 from both sides
576=h^2
square root of both sides
24=h

(base1+base2) times height times 1/2=area
(16+30) times 24 times 1/2=(46) times 12=552 cm^22

the answer is 552 square centimiters or cm^2
and perimiter=96 cm

A=1/2h(b1+b2)
= 1/2(h)(30+16)
>how to find h<
>30-16= 14/2 = 7<
>25²-7² = 625-49 = 576<
>√576 = 24 .. h=24<
= 1/2(24)(30+16)
= 12(46)
A = 552 cm²
P= b+b+l+l
= 30+16+25+25
P = 96 cm

Emilio has 8 large bottles of soda and 12 large jugs of water. Emilio wants to set up identical tables and have no drinks left o

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Think about the ratio between the current number of large bottles of soda(8) and the current number of jugs of water (12)

By finding the GCF (Greatest Common Factor) of the two numbers, we can conclude that if both numbers were to be divided by the GCF, 4, we would get a 2:3 ratio.

For every 2 bottles of soda, 3 jugs of water will be placed. Keep doing this until we run out of both sources of liquid, in this case, 4 tables where we would use all the bottles of soda and the jugs of water.
