Answer:

2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the area and the lengths of the two parallel sides of this trapezoid are given:

A = 7m^2, b1 = 3 m and b2 = 4 m. What's missing is the width of the trapezoid.

First we write out the formula for the area of a trapezoid:

b1 + b2

A = --------------- * w, where w represents the width of the figure.

We need to solve this for the width, w. Multiplying both sides of the above equation by

------------

b1 + b2

results in

------------ = w

b1 + b2

Substituting 7 m^2 for A, 3 m for b1 and 4 m for b2 results in

2(7 m^2) 14 m^2

w = ------------------ = ---------------- = 2 m

(3 + 4) m 7 m

The missing dimension is the width of the figure. This width is 2 m.

Answer:

18 waves hit the beach in 49 s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The frequency of the waves that were coming into the beach is 0.367347 Hz.

Now, to find the number of waves that hit the beach in 49 s.

Let the number of waves be $n.$

The frequency of waves ( $f$ ) = 0.367347 Hz.

The time it takes to hit the beach ( $t$ ) = 49 s.

Now, we put formula to get the number of waves:

$f=\frac{n}{t} \\\\0.367347=\frac{n}{49} \\\\Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 49\ we\ get:\\\\18.000003=n\\\\n=18.000003.$

The number of waves = 18.

Therefore, 18 waves hit the beach in 49 s.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

14.01, 493, 87

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 28 from both sides tells you the range of values you need to be looking at.

28 + x > 42

x > 14

Any values more than 14 will make the inequality true. Three of them are ...

14.01, 493, 87
