X+3y=7
x-3y=1
add them together
x+3y=7
<u>x-3y=1 +
</u>2x+0y=8
2x=8
divide 2
x=4
subsitute
x+3y=7
4+3y=7
subtract 4
3y=3
divid 3
y=1
x=4
y=1
answer is A
<u />
The area of a trapezoid with base lengths 7 in and 19 in is given by
A = (1/2)(b1 + b2)h
A = (1/2)(7 +19)·7 = 91
The appropriate choice is
D. 91 in²
_____
It can also be figured by adding the area of the 7 in square (49 in²) to the area of the 7×12 in right triangle (42 in²).
Ummm is this a full question?
