Area of the trapezoidal bucket, A is 130x² - 77x - 36 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Area of a trapezoid = 1/2 (Sum of parallel sides) × Height
Sum of parallel sides = (10x - 2) + (16x + 10)
= 26x + 8 = 2(13x + 4)
Height = 10x - 9
⇒ Area of the bucket = 1/2 × 2(13x + 4) (10x - 9)
= (13x + 4)(10x - 9) cm²
= 130x² - 117x + 40x - 36
A = 130x² - 77x - 36
Answer: There are 8 snake and 3 elephants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= Number of snakes
y= Number of elephants
We know that , snake has no legs elephant has 4 legs.
Then, Total animals = x+y=11 (i)
Total legs = 4y = 12
⇒ y=3 .. (ii)[divide both sides by 4]
Substitute value of y from (ii) in (i) , we get

Hence, there are 8 snake and 3 elephants.
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x $0.85= $3.40
$9-$3.40= $5.60
Answer:
C. 
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of black ribbons one would have subtract the amount of red ribbons from the total number of ribbons. Then one would have to express it as a proportion. Part over whole equals percent over 100. The number of black ribbons over total ribbons equals "b" over 100.
Answer:
122+42x= 2( 61+21x)
4x+16x+24 = 4(5x+6)
24x+48-3x = 21x+48
3x+39-2x = x+29
