Answer:
CA=6x-24 and BD = 2x+8
Find CE
CA=BD => 6x-24=2x+8 => x=8
CE=1/2(CA) or 1/2(BD) => 1/2(6x-24)=12
CE=12
CA=24
BD=24
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
92.4 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of Trapezoid: h(b1+b2)/2
6.6 (14.2 + 7.6 + 6.2) / 2
= 6.6 (28) / 2
= 184.8/2
= 92.4 m^2
3 (x + 1) = 5 + x
First you must distribute the 3 to the values inside the parentheses:
3 (x + 1) = 5 + x
(3 * x) + (3 * 1) = 5 + x
3x + 3 = 5 + x
Now you must combine like terms. Like terms are numbers that have matching variables like 3x and x OR are numbers with out variables like 3 and 5.
3x - x = 5 - 3
2x = 2
Next, to completely isolate x, divide 2 to both sides. Since 2 is being multiplied by x, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 2 out (in this case it will make 2 one) from the left side and bring it over to the right side.
2x / 2 = 2 / 2
1x = 1
Check:
3 (1 + 1) = 5 + 1
3 (2) = 5 + 1
6 = 6
^^^This is true, therefore:
x = 1
