1. You have that:

 - The<span> lengths of the bases are (6x-1) units and 3 units.
 - The midsegment has a length of (5x-3) units.

 2. To solve this exercise, you must apply the formula for calculate the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid, which is shown below:

 Midsegment=Base1+Base2/2

 As you can see, the midsegment is half the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.

 3. When you substitute the values, you obtain:

 (5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2

 4. Now, you can solve the problem by clearing the "x":
</span>
 (5x-3)=[(6x-1)+3]/2
 2(5x-3)=6x-1+3
 10x-6=6x+2
 10x-6x=2+6
 4x=8
 x=8/4
 x=2

Answer:

solution is 9a^16

Step-by-step explanation:

(6)^2= 36

(a^5)^2= a^25

36a^25/(9a^9)

(36/9)= 4

(a^25)/(a^9)= a^(25-9)= a^16

Square measures 8 m on each side if each side is written by 1/4 of eight originally the premiere of the new square will be blank
Digiron [165]

Step-by-step explanation:

so, if I understand this correctly, the original square had a side length of 8 m.

now we transform this square into one with side length 1/4×8 = 8/4 = 2 m.

and the questions are what are the perimeter and the area of that new (smaller) square ?

the perimeter of a square is

4× side length = 4×2 = 8 m

the area of a square is

side length ² = 2² = 4 m²
