Answer:

Flip the fraction that you are applying the exponent to, if it's a whole number, just imagine it's over one and flip it that way.

Explanation:

If you have 3/5 ^-3

You would flip the fraction to 5/3, then the exponent turns to positive 3

So 5/3 ^3

For a whole number, for example, 6, ^-2

In other words, it's 6/1 ^2, so you would make it 1/6, then the exponent turns positive.

So 1/6 ^2

Hope this helped :)

What is the area of this trapezoid? Enter your answer in the box.
olga2289 [7]
The formula for area of a trapezoid is
\frac{(b1 + b2) \times h}{2}
so you add up the bottom base (17) and the top base (3) to get 20.
you then take the sum of the bases (20) times the height (8) to get 160.
lastly, you take 160 ÷ 2 to get your final answer, which is 80 (:

AB = 44 + 3xBC = 33 + yCD = 64 − xAD = 48 − 2yQuadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are congruen
Otrada [13]

The lengths (in centimeters) of the opposite side pairs are 59 cm , 38 cm. Option C) is the correct answer.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

<u>step 1</u> :

Given that,

Quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram if both pairs of opposite sides are congruent.

<u>step 2</u> :

The opposite sides are AB and CD respectively.

The another opposite sides are BC and AD respectively.

<u>step 3</u> :

If both pairs of opposite sides are congruent, then

AB = CD

44+3x = 64-x

3x+x = 64-44

4x = 20

x = 5

<u>step 4</u> :

BC = AD

33+y = 48-2y

y+2y = 48-33

3y = 15

y = 5

<u>step 5</u> :

Subsitute x=5 and y=5 in any of the given sides,

CD = 64-x = 64-5 = 59

∴ CD = 59 cm

BC = 33+y = 33+5 = 38

∴ BC = 38 cm

The lengths of the opposite side pairs are 59 cm , 38 cm.
