Area of trapezoid = a + b/2 * h
a = 20, b = 9, h = 21/-16
20+9/2 * (21-16) = 29/2 * 5 = 72.5
The area of the trapezoid = 72.5 in^2
Area of the rectangle = l * w
l = 16, w = 20
16 * 20 = 320
The area of the rectangle: 320 in^2
Well first do you parentheses and the multiply all of your exponets
The volume formula of a cylinder is :

From the problem, the volume is 1 m^3 and the height is 0.6 m.
Substitute the given to the formula :

Take the square root of both sides of the equation :
![\begin{gathered} r^2=0.53 \\ r=\sqrt[]{0.53} \\ r=0.728 \end{gathered}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbegin%7Bgathered%7D%20r%5E2%3D0.53%20%5C%5C%20r%3D%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B0.53%7D%20%5C%5C%20r%3D0.728%20%5Cend%7Bgathered%7D)
The answer is r = 0.728 m
Megan:
x to the one third power =

<span>x to the one twelfth power = </span>

<span>The quantity of x to the one third power, over x to the one twelfth power is:
</span>

<span>
Since </span>

then

Now, just subtract exponents:
1/3 - 1/12 = 4/12 - 1/12 = 3/12 = 1/4

Julie:
x times x to the second times x to the fifth = x * x² * x⁵
<span>The thirty second root of the quantity of x times x to the second times x to the fifth is

![\sqrt[32]{x* x^{2} * x^{5} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5B32%5D%7Bx%2A%20x%5E%7B2%7D%20%2A%20x%5E%7B5%7D%20%7D%20)
<span>
Since </span>

Then
![\sqrt[32]{x* x^{2} * x^{5} }= \sqrt[32]{ x^{1+2+5} } =\sqrt[32]{ x^{8} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B32%5D%7Bx%2A%20x%5E%7B2%7D%20%2A%20x%5E%7B5%7D%20%7D%3D%20%5Csqrt%5B32%5D%7B%20x%5E%7B1%2B2%2B5%7D%20%7D%20%3D%5Csqrt%5B32%5D%7B%20x%5E%7B8%7D%20%7D)
Since
![\sqrt[n]{x^{m}} = x^{m/n} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5E%7Bm%7D%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7Bm%2Fn%7D%20%7D%20)
Then
![\sqrt[32]{ x^{8} }= x^{8/32} = x^{1/4}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B32%5D%7B%20x%5E%7B8%7D%20%7D%3D%20x%5E%7B8%2F32%7D%20%3D%20x%5E%7B1%2F4%7D%20)
Since both Megan and Julie got the same result, it can be concluded that their expressions are equivalent.
