$f(-4)=8\to(-4,\ 8)\\\\f(-1)=4\to(-1,\ 4)$

The point-slope formula of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{4-8}{-1-(-4)}=\dfrac{-4}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\y-8=-\dfrac{4}{3}(x-(-4))\\\\y-8=-\dfrac{4}{3}x-\dfrac{16}{3}\ \ \ \ |+8\\\\y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x-\dfrac{16}{3}+\dfrac{24}{3}\\\\y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x+\dfrac{8}{3}\ \ \ |\cdot3\\\\3y=-4x+8\ \ \ |+4x\\\\4x+3y=8$

The slope-intercept form: $y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x+\dfrac{8}{3}$

The standard form: $4x+3y=8$

Find the area of the regular trapezoid. The figure is not drawn to scale. The top side is 4, the bottom side is 7, and both side

svp [43]

A regular trapezoid is shown in the picture attached.

We know that:
DC = minor base = 4
AB = major base = 7
AD = BC = lateral sides or legs = 5

Since the two legs have the same length, the trapezoid is isosceles and we can calculate AH by the formula:

AH = (AB - DC) ÷ 2
= (7 - 5) ÷ 2
= 2 ÷ 2
= 1

Now, we can apply the Pythagorean theorem in order to calculate DH:
DH = √(AD² - AH²)
= √(5² - 1²)
= √(25 - 1)
= √24
= 2√6

Last, we have all the information needed in order to calculate the area by the formula:

$A = \frac{(AB + CD)DH}{2}$

A = (7 + 5) × 2√6 ÷ 2
= 12√6

The area of the regular trapezoid is 12√6 square units.

Airida [17]

(37.5)(12.5)=x(15)
468.75=15x
x=31.25

she will have to work 31.25 hours in order to earn the same amount of money
