Question

Find the areas of the trapezoids. PLZ HELP!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Type 7.5 in the box!

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the trapezoid formula ( ( base 1 + base 2 ) / 2 ) * height;

$Length of Base 1 - 1 unit,\\\\Length of Base 2 - 4 units,\\\\Length of Height - 3 units ( length of x - intercept in shaded region )\\\\Area of Trapezoid = ( Average of Bases ) * Height = ( ( 1 + 4 ) / 2 ) * 3 = ( 5 / 2 ) * 3 = 7.5 square units,\\\\Solution; 7.5 square units$

Area = 7.5 square units
