Answer:
She needs 50 ft² of wood to cover the table
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to know the formula for area of a trapezoid, which is
A = (B1 + B2)h/s (add the bases together, multiply by the height, then divide
by 2)
We are given B1 = 12, B2 = 8, and h = 5, so plug them in and simplify
A = (12 + 8)(5)/2
A = (20)(5)/2
A = 100/2
A = 50 ft²
Mike age is 3 less then twice the age of his brother nuke.
M = Mike's age now
N = Nuke's age now
M = 2N - 3
Ten years ago, four times nuke's age was one more mike's age.
M-10 = Mike's age 10 years ago
N-10 = Muke's age 10 years ago
4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10
what are their present ages
find M and N
substitute M = 2N - 3 into 4(N - 10) = 1 + M -10:
4(N - 10) = 1 + [2N - 3] - 10
4N - 40 = 2N - 12
2N = 28
N = 14
M = 2(14) - 3 = 28 - 3 = 25
Mike is 25 and Nuke is 14.
check:
4(14 - 10) = 4(4) = 16 = 26 -10 = 1 + 25 - 10
