Two consecutive integers would be x and x+ 1
if you multiply them you have x(x + 1) = x^2 + x
if you want the product to equal 90 you get x^2 + x = 90
The first option is correct.
Answer:
B. City P is above sea level and City R is below sea level
Step-by-step explanation:
A. City R is negative meaning it is below sea level however City Q is 0 meaning it is at sea level, so this statement is false.
C. Once again, City P is positive meaning it is above sea level but City Q is 0 meaning it is at sea level, so this statement is false.
D. Like before, City P is above sea level and City Q is at sea level not below, so this is, once again, false.
Given:
The height of the given trapezoid = 6 in
The area of the trapezoid = 72 in²
Also given, one base of the trapezoid is 6 inches longer than the other base
To find the lengths of the bases.
Formula
The area of the trapezoid is

where, h be the height of the trapezoid
be the shorter base
be the longer base
As per the given problem,

Now,
Putting, A=72,
and h=6 we get,

or, 
or, 
or, 
or, 
or, 
So,
The shorter base is 9 in and the other base is = (6+9) = 15 in
Hence,
One base is 9 inches for one of the bases and 15 inches for the other base.
