To answer this, you will find the sum of the bases by using the area of a trapezoid formula:
A = 1/2 x h x (b1 + b2) - You will represent the area of the 2 bases as x, because it says the sum of the bases so this can be
written as 1 term, x
69.6 = 1/2 x 8.7 x (x); solve for x
69.6 = 4.35x; divide both sides by 4.35
x = 16 in.
If 16 inches is the sum of the 2 bases and the sum of the legs, than you will double this answer to find the perimeter.
16 in x 2 = 32 inches
The perimeter is 32 inches.
Y = total cost
40 = The one time fee
90 = the service charge per month
x = number of months
Answer:
−3.632 > −3.792
|−3.632| < |−3.792|
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
−3.632 −3.792 |−3.632| |−3.792|
First comparison :
−3.632 −3.792
Using the knowledge of number line :
- 3.792 occurs farther to the left of a number line than - 3.632, and numbers which occurs farther to the left are lesser. Therefore,
−3.632 > −3.792
2.)
|−3.632| |−3.792|
The presence of the absolute value symbol annuls the negative sign in the digit given. Hence, we can view both numbers as being positive values as ; 3.632 3.792
Numbers further to the right of a number line are greater and 3.792 occurs farther to the right than 3.632.
Hence,
|−3.632| < |−3.792|
