I do believe it is 12 as well considering the fact that it's negative three and not positive. If it was a positive three then maybe it would be 18.

Answer:

  24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The total fare is the sum of the pickup fee and the mileage charge. For xx miles, the mileage charge will be 1.75xx, so the total is ...

  1.75xx +2.90 = 44.90 . . .  equation for xx

  1.75xx = 42.00 . . . . . subtract 2.90

  xx = 24 . . . . . . . . . divide by 1.75

The number of miles in Nicole's taxi ride was 24.

A trapezoid has an area of 20 cm2 and a height z cm. The lengths of the parallel sides are (2z + 3) cm and (6z – 1) cm. Find the
Brums [2.3K]

Answer: 2.11cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

The lengths of the parallel sides are (2z + 3) cm and (6z – 1) cm

The area of trapezoid is calculated using the formula:

1/2(a + b) × h

Where ;

a = Length of side 1

b = length of side 2

h = height

Take a = (2z + 3) and b = (6z – 1), h = z

Therefore ;

1/2 (2z + 3 + 6z - 1) × z

Opening the bracket

(z + 1.5 + 3z - 0.5) × z

(4z + 1 ) × z = 20cm^2

4z^2 + z = 20cm^2

Using Quadratic formula:

4z^2 + z - 20 = 0

a = 4, b = 1, c = - 20

(-b±√b^2 -4ac) / 2a

Z = 2.11 or - 2.364

z cannot be negative, therefore,

Z = 2.11 cm
