Answer:

The two parallel sides a and b are 17 cm and 23 cm respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezium = {(a+b)/2} h

Where

h = height = 18 cm

a = parallel side 1 = x

b = parallel side 2 = x + 6

Area of a trapezium = {(a+b)/2} h

360 = {(x + x + 6) / 2} 18

360 = { (2x + 6) / 2} 18

360 = (2x + 6) 9

360 = 18x + 54

Subtract 54 from both sides

360 - 54 = 18x

306 = 18x

Divide both sides by 18

x = 306 / 18

= 17

x = 17 cm

a = parallel side 1 = x

x = 17 cm

b = parallel side 2 = x + 6

x + 6

= 17 + 6

= 23 cm

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

<h3>25%</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of student in the school = 152 students

Number of student that have more than one pet = 38

percentage of the students have more than one pet will be expressed as

% of student with more than 1 pet = number of student with more than one pet/total number of student * 100%

% of student with more than 1 pet = 38/152 * 100

% of student with more than 1 pet = 3800/152

% of student with more than 1 pet = 25%

Hence 25% of the students in the school have more than one pet.
