How do you find the volume of a trapezoid

Mathematics

If the prism length is L, trapezoid base width B, trapezoid top width A, and trapezoid height H, then the volume of the prism is given by the four-variable formula: V(L, B, A, H) = LH(A + B)/2.

" In other words, multiply together the length, height, and average of A and B."

To compute the volume of a symmetric trapezoidal prism, you need to know four measurements: the length of the prism L, the height of the trapezoidal cross-section H, the base width of the trapezoid B, and the top width of the trapezoid A.

Alternatively, if you know the trapezoid's slant side lengths S, you can compute the volume with L, S, B, and A.

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if necessary). 50, 60,72,... Find the 8th term.
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

179.159

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sequence :

50, 60, 72,..

The sequence given is a geometric sequence :

For a geometric sequence ;

ar^(n - 1)

a = first term

r = a2 / a1 = 60 / 50 = 1.2

The 8th term ; n =8

a8 = ar^(n - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^(8 - 1)

a8 = 50*1.2^7

a8 = 50*3.5831808

a8 = 179.15904

a8 = 179.159 (nearest thousandth )

Alex takes a multiple-choice quiz in his Anthropology 100 class. The quiz has 10 questions, each has 4 possible answers, only on
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The probability is 0.28157

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of answers are 40 answers ( 10 questions and 4 answer each)

The number of correct answers is only 10

So the probability that he answers 2 exactly out of 10 means he correctly selected 2 answers

The probability will be;

10 C 2/ 40 C 10

This mean out of the total 10 correct, he selects 2 and out of the total 40 , he selects 10

The probability of selecting a correct answer is;

1/4 while the probability of selecting a wrong one is 3/4

So probability of selecting 2 correct out of a total 10 will be

10 C 2 (1/4)^2 (3/4)^8

= 0.28157

A city has 3 new houses for every 9 old houses. If there are 21 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?
kipiarov [429]
To find your answer you would divide 21 by 3 which would be 7, once you've got 7 you would multiply it by 9 which would give you the amount of old houses that there is which would be 63.
