Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Area of trapezium = ½*(AD + BC)*AB

Area = 42 cm²

AD = (x + 8) cm

BC = (x + 5) cm

AB = x cm

Plug in the values into the equation

42 = ½((x + 8) + (x + 5))*x

42 = ½((x + 8 + x + 5)*x

42 = ½(2x + 13)*x

Multiply both sides by 2

42*2 = (2x + 13)*x

84 = 2x² + 13x

2x² + 13x = 84

Subtract both sides by 84

2x² + 13x - 84 = 0

A racquetball club charges $10 for a one-month trial membership. After the trail month, the regular membership fee is $12 per mo
Furkat [3]
Membership is discounted $2 for first month
c=cost of one month
d=discount=$2
x=# of months
xc - 2= total cost
x for 1 month is 1, c is always 12, -2 is constant
1 x(12) - 2=10 for first month
8 months
8c -2=total cost for 8 months
8 x 12 - 2= 94 for 8 months

I don't understand how to do find x and y, please help? thank yous.

#8) There are THREE right-angle (90°) TRIANGLES.

The "big" triangle has legs "x" and "no designation - <em>so lets call it Z" </em>and hypotenuse "4+5"<em> = 9</em>

The "left" triangle has legs "4" and "y" and hypotenuse "x"

The "right" triangle has legs "5" and "y" and hypotenuse "no designation - <em>which we named Z</em>"

Now, you can create a system of equations - you have three unknown variables and can create an equation for each triangle using the Pythagorean Theorem.

Big: x² + Z² = 9² → x² + Z² = 81

Left: 4² + y² = x² → 16 + y² = x² → 16 = x² - y² → x² - y² = 16

Right: 5² + y² = Z² → 25 + y² = Z²

Next, let's eliminate Z by using substitution....use the Right equation to plug Z² into the Big equation to create a NEW Big equation.

NEW Big: x² + (25 + y² ) = 81 → x² + y² = 81 - 25 → x² + y² = 56

Now, we have two unknown variables (x and y) and two equations (NEW Big and Left). Solve the system using any method. <em>I am going to solve using the elimination method)</em>

NEW Big: x² + y² = 56

+ Left: <u>x² - y² = 16</u>

2x² = 72 <em>added the NEW Big and Left equations</em>

x² = 36 <em>divided both sides by 2</em>

x = 6 <em>took square root of both sides (NOTE: -6 is disregarded because we are solving for a length, which cannot be negative) </em>

The last step is to plug the "x" value (<em>that we just solved for)</em> into one of the equations to solve for "y". <em>I am choosing to use the Left equation.</em>

<em> </em>x² - y² = 16

36 - y² = 16<em> </em>

- y² = 16 - 36

- y² = -20

y² = 20

y = √20

y = 2√5

Answer: x = 6, y = 2√5

Try #9 on your own and then check your answers below:

Big: Z² + x² = 12², Left: 3² + y² = Z², Right: y² + 9² = x²

Answer: x = 6√3, y = 3√3
