Answer: 30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________

Area of a trapezoid, "A" = (1/2) ( b₁ + b₂) h ;
______________________________________________
or, write as: A = ( b₁ + b₂) h / 2 ;
___________________________________
in which: A = area;
b₁ = length of "base 1" (choose either one of the 2 (two bases);
b₂ = length of "base 2" (use the base that is remaining);
h = height of trapezoid;
____________________________________________
From the information given:
___________________________
A = 100 m² ;
h = 5 m
b₁ = 10 m
b₂ = x
___________________________
Find "x", which is: "b₂" ;
__________________________
A = ( b₁ + b₂) h / 2 ;
_____________________________
Plug in our known values; and plug in "x" for "b₂" ; and solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
100 m² = [(10m + x) (5m)] / 2 ; Solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
(10m + x) (5m) = (2)* (100m²) ;
_________________________________________________________
(5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
___________________________________________
Note: The distributive property of multiplication:
____________________________________________
a(b+c) = ab + ac ;

a(b−c) = ab − ac ;
____________________________________________

We have: (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
____________________________________________
So: (5m) (10m + x) = (5m*10m) + (5m * x) ;

= 50m² + (5m)x ;
_______________________________________________
→ 50m² + (5m)x = 200m² ;
_______________________________________________
Divide the ENTIRE equation by "5m" ;
_______________________________________________
→ { 50m² + (5m)x } / 5m = (200m² / 5m) ;
_______________________________________________
→ 10m + x = 40m ;
________________________________________________
Now, subtract "10m" from EACH side of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________
→ 10m + x − 10m = 40m − 10m ;

to get:

→ x = 30 m ; which is our answer.

Answer: 30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .

AnnZ [28]

Answer: $\bold{A)\quad y=5sin\bigg(\dfrac{6}{5}x-\pi\bigg)-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a sin/cos function is: y = A sin/cos (Bx-C) + D where the period (P) = 2π ÷ B

In the given function, $B=\dfrac{6}{5}$ → $P=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{10\pi}{3}$

Half of that period is: $\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{10\pi}{3}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{5\pi}{3}}$

Calculate the period for each of the options to find a match:

$A)\quad B=\dfrac{6}{5}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{6}{5}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{5\pi}{3}\quad \leftarrow\text{THIS WORKS!}\\\\\\B)\quad B=\dfrac{6}{10}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{6}{10}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{10}{6}=\dfrac{10\pi}{3}\\\\\\C)\quad B=\dfrac{5}{6}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{5}{6}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{6}{5}=\dfrac{12\pi}{5}\\\\\\D)\quad B=\dfrac{3}{10}:\quad 2\pi \div \dfrac{3}{10}=2\pi \cdot \dfrac{10}{3}=\dfrac{20\pi}{3}$

At one store, Julia saved $10 with a coupon for 40% off her total purchase. At another store, the $29 she spent on books is

barxatty [35]

Let "a" and "b" represent the values of the first and second purchases, respectively.
0.40*(original price of "a") = $10
(original price of "a") = $10/0.40 = $25.00 . . . . divide by 0.40 and evaluate
a = (original price of "a") - $10 . . . . . . Julia paid the price after the discount
a = $25.00 -10.00 = $15.00

At the other store,
$29 = 0.58b
$29/0.58 = b = $50 . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of b and evaluate

Then Julia's total spending is
a + b = $15.00 +50.00 = $65.00

Julia spent $65 in all at the two stores.
