<h3>Given</h3>

1) Trapezoid BEAR with bases 11.5 and 6.5 and height 8.5, all in cm.

2) Regular pentagon PENTA with side lengths 9 m

<h3>Find</h3>

The area of each figure, rounded to the nearest integer

<h3>Solution</h3>

1) The area of a trapezoid is given by

... A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

... A = (1/2)(11.5 +6.5)·(8.5) = 76.5 ≈ 77

The area of BEAR is about 77 cm².

2) The conventional formula for the area of a regular polygon makes use of its perimeter and the length of the apothem. For an n-sided polygon with side length s, the perimeter is p = n·s. The length of the apothem is found using trigonometry to be a = (s/2)/tan(180°/n). Then the area is ...

... A = (1/2)ap

... A = (1/2)(s/(2tan(180°/n)))(ns)

... A = (n/4)s²/tan(180°/n)

We have a polygon with s=9 and n=5, so its area is

... A = (5/4)·9²/tan(36°) ≈ 139.36

The area of PENTA is about 139 m².

A fisherman uses a spring scale to weigh a tilapia fish. He records the fish weight as a kilograms and notices that the spring s
belka [17]

Answer:

k = \frac{980a}{b}

Step-by-step explanation:

Fisherman noticed a stretch in the spring = 'b' centimetres

Weight of the fish = a kilograms

If force applied on a spring scale makes a stretch in the spring then Hook's law for the force applied is,

F = kΔx

Where k = spring constant

Δx = stretch in the spring

F = weight applied

F = mg

Here 'm' = mass of the fish

g = gravitational constant

F = a(9.8)

  = 9.8a

Δx = b centimetres = 0.01b meters

Therefore, 9.8a = k(0.01b)

k = \frac{9.8a}{0.01b}

k = \frac{980a}{b}

Therefore, spring constant of the spring will be determined by the expression, k = \frac{980a}{b}

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

y=-2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-7)=-2(x-1)

y+7=-2x+2

y=-2x+2-7

y=-2x-5
