Answer:

height = 11.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated using the formula

A = $\frac{1}{2}$ h(a + b)

where h is the height and a, b the bases

here a = 21, b = 8 and A = 166.75, hence

$\frac{1}{2}$ h(21 + 8) = 166.75

Multiply both sides by 2 to eliminate the fraction

29h = 333.5 ( divide both sides by 29 )

h = 11.5 in

How do I evaluate an algebraic expression

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12. If we know the value of our variables, we can replace the variables with their values and then evaluate the expression.
