Answer: The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality with the information given:

The sum of the weight of each piece of Luggage must be less or equal to 581 pounds:

x + 325 ≤581

Where x is the second piece's weight.

Solving for x:

x ≤581 -325

x ≤ 256

The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

Find the area of the trapezoid below to the nearest tenth.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Area of trapezoid = 67.6 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid is given by the expression,

Area of the trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h$

Here, $b_1$ and $b_2$ are the parallel sides of the given trapezoid.

And ' $h$ ' = Height between the parallel sides

From the given triangle ABE,

m(∠ABE) = m(∠ABC) - m(∠EBC)

m(∠ABE) = 120° - 90°

= 30°

By applying cosine rule in the given triangle,

cos(30°) = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}=\frac{BE}{AB}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}=\frac{BE}{6}$

BE = $3\sqrt{3}$ units

By applying sine rule in ΔABE,

sin(30°) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{AE}{AB}$

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{AE}{6}$

AE = 3 units

Length of $b_1=BC=10$

Length of $b_2=AD=(AE+EF+FD)$ [AE = FD, since given trapezoid ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid]

$b_2=3+10+3$

$b_2=16$

Height between the parallel sides $h=3\sqrt{3}$

Area of the trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}(BC+AD)BE$

= $\frac{1}{2}(10+16)(3\sqrt{3})$

= $39\sqrt{3}$

= 67.6 square units

The Great Wall of China is about 20 feet high and abiut 15 feet wide what is the volume of a 1-mile section of the wall? (The wh

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

79200 feet is the volume of great wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 mile = 5280 feet

5280 feet × 15 feet = 79200

The height is the thing that we don't need to use, because you need volume, volume is the place where the wall at, the place is 79200 feet.

And I have question for you, have you ever go to China, did you go to the great wall, where did you come from.
