Area of Trapezoid = h(b1+b2/2)
 b1 and b2 are the lengths of each base and h is the height.

Area = 16(20+24/2)=352 Square Feet 

352/20=17.6 Cans of paint.

Hope this helps and is correct, I haven't done this kind of math in a while.

Simplify the rational expressions. State any excluded values. Show your work. (3x - 6)/(x - 2)
cluponka [151]
Hello,

Put the 3 as a common factor.

Look:

3x - 6 = 3 . ( x - 2 )

Then,

( 3x - 6) / (x - 2) = 3 .( x - 2) / (x -2)

Now simplity ( x -2)

= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Knowing about our proprieties about parentheses and negatives, let's solve this out.

<u>A negative multiplied by a negative give you a positive</u>

How to solve this brainteaser
laila [671]

Answer:

last row equals 333

Step-by-step explanation:

The clock showing time 9:00 should be worth 9 points, and the clock showing 3:00 should be worth 3 points, giving for the first row:

9 + 9 + 3 = 21

the three equal calculators showing 1234 are worth 10 points each:

1+2+3+4 = 10

and 10 + 10 + 10 = 30

the light bulbs should be 15 points each then giving 15 + 15 - 15 = 130 - 15 = 15 Notice also that they all have 5 rays of light coming out (so a 3 points per ray)

Now for the bottom line we have:

9 + (1+2+2+4) times 3 * 12 (only four rays on each bulb thus 4 * 3 = 12)

Notice we added the figures that appear in the calculator.

9 + 9 * 36 = 333
