Answer: 2.5 cm


Step-by-step explanation:

We know that area of trapezoid A = \frac{1}{2}h(a+b), where a and b are the opposite sides of trapezoid and h is the altitude of the trapezoid.

Given: AB = 1 cm and  CD = 5 cm, and the area = 7.5 square cm.

By the name of trapezoid we can see that AB and CD are opposite sides of trapezoid, then

Area of trapezoid=\frac{1}{2}h(AB+CD)=7.5\ cm^2

\Rightarroe\frac{1}{2}h(1+5)=7.5\\\Rightarrow\ h(6)=2\times7.5\\\Rightarrow\ h=\frac{2\times7.5}{6}\\\Rightarrow\ h=2.5

Hence, the altitude of the trapezoid = 2.5 cm

Area of a trapezoid = 1/(a + b)h; where a and b are the two parallel sides and h is the height (altitude).
7.5 = 1/2(1 + 5)h = 1/2(6)h = 3h
h = 7.5/3 = 2.5 cm.

Equation of the existing water pipe's line

a) slope, m = rise / run = Δy / Δx = 3/2

b) y-intercept, b = 3

equation: y = mx + b = (3/2)x + 3

Equation of the new water pipe's line

slope, m = - 1 / (slope of the perpendicular line) = - 1 / (3/2) = - 2/3

point (0,2)

=> y - 2 = (-2/3) (x - 0) => y = (-2/3)x + 2 <---- equation of the new pipe

28)

two parallel lines have the same slope =>

slope, m = rise / run = Δy / Δx = [4 - 0] / [11 - 8] = 4 / 3

point (4,5) => y - 5 = (4/3) (x - 4)

=> y = (4/3)x - 16/3 + 5 = (4/3)x - 1/3

y = (4/3)x - 1/3  <--- equation of the new bike path

Please help!!! How many coefficients does this polynomial have in its complete form, including any missing terms?
frez [133]
-5x^3 + 2x^2 + 1

a coefficient is the number that is multiplied by the variable.For instance, the coefficient of 2x is 2....because 2 (the number) is multiplied by the variable x.

so in ur problem....there are 2 coefficients..-5 and 2.

** the number 1 is not a coefficient, it is a constant...a " loner " with no variables (letters) attached.

** and if u have just the letter...such as n, the coefficient to that is 1 but the one is just not written...it is actually 1n.

okay...I am gonna shut up now :)
