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
Answer:
77 is the average bowling score
Dividing <em>f(x)</em> by 2<em>x</em> + 5 leaves the same remainder as division by <em>x</em> + 5/2. By the remainder theorem, it is equal to <em>f </em>(-5/2), so the remainder here is
<em>f</em> (-5/2) = 8 (-5/2)³ + 4 (-5/2)² - 13 (-5/2) + 3 = -129/2
