Someone please help me
Phoenix [80]

Answer: 120, 60, 180

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Area of a rectangle's formula is:

l × w

So, looking at the diagram, we get:

6 × 20 = 120 cm²

2) Area of a trapezoid's formula is:

\frac{a+b}{2} × h (where both a and b are the different base lengths)

So, looking at the diagram, we get:

\frac{10+20}{2} × 4 = 60 cm²

3) Add both to find the area of the entire figure.

120 + 60 = 180 cm²

Find the rate of change and initial value. Y=mx+b
tekilochka [14]
Y= 4/5 x + 24
To find the rate of change you find the difference in each of the numbers on the graph. For example, 36-32 is 4. So 28-4 is 24 and that would be the next number down. It would also match x to be 0 because since the rate of change for x was 5, if you subtract 5 from 5 you get 0. So from this we know that the coordinates would be 0,5.
From this info, the slope would be 4/5 and the y intercept or initial value would be 24

It costs $3.45 to buy 3/4 lb of chopped walnuts. How much would it cost to purchase 12 lbs of walnuts? Enter the numeric value o
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

$55.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Create a proportion where x is the cost of 12 lbs of walnuts:

\frac{3.45}{0.75} = \frac{x}{12}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

0.75x = 41.4

x = 55.2

So, for 12 lbs of walnuts, it will cost $55.20
