The area of a trapezoid is given in the formula: 1/2(a + b) * h, where a is the length of the top of the trapezoid, b is the length of the bottom of the trapezoid, and h is the height of the trapezoid.
All of these measurements are given so all that you need to do is to substitute these values into the formula.
Substitute 3 for a, 9 for b, and 5 for h.
Solve inside the parentheses first. Add 3 and 9.
Multiply 12 and 1/2 together.
Multiply 6 and 5.
We need to figure out if the area is to the 5th or 6th power. When we added 3 and 9 together, we combined like terms so the exponent stayed to the 3rd power.
After multiplying this ^3 by the 5mn^2, the exponent becomes to the 5th power because you add exponents when multiplying.
Therefore the final answer is B. 30 mn^5.

When going down from 32 to 8 to 2, you can see that each number is being divided by 4.
32 / 4 = 8...
8 / 4 = 2...
So to find the next number in this sequence you would divide 2 by 4.
The answer is B. 1/2.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let point 
be the point where the straight line drawn from point 
meets the straight line 
, it is evident that 
and 
is similar given that both triangles share the same angle, 
. Hence, the ratio of the sides of each triangle is the same. Specifically,
.
Performing cross multiplication yields
.
If there are 8 pints in a gallon there are 4 gallons
32(pints) divided by 8 is 4
Answer:
The playground is 160ft by 360ft.
The model is 4in by 9in
First, 1ft = 12 inches.
Then the measures of the playground, in inches, is:
160*12in = 1920 in
360*12in = 4320in
The playground is 1920in by 4320in.
Then, the ratios between the measures of the playground and the model are:
1920in/4in = 480
4320in/9in = 480
This means that each inch in the model, represents 480 inches in the actual playground.
