Answer:
£59.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
To solve this problem, we must:
- Solve for the length of the fence (aka height)
- Find the area of the lawn (trapezoid)
- Find the number of cans needed
- Find the price of all the cans
Area of a trapezoid, and why the formula works:
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides known as bases. The other two sides are known as the legs.
To find the area of a trapezoid, we use the formula:

This works because if we used the formula, we would be duplicating the trapezoid to form a rectangle with a side length of B1 + B2, and a height of h. Since the trapezoid is half of that, we divide by 2.
Solve for height:
The height is unknown but can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem.
The difference between the bases is the length of the bottom leg of the right triangle, and 17 is the hypotenuse.
Difference = 20 - 12 = 8
Hypotenuse = 17
- 8² + fence² = 17²
- 64 + fence² = 289
- 225 = fence²
- fence = 15
The height is 15
Solve for area:
Now we can solve for the area.
The area is 240
Cans:
The area of the lawn is 240 square meters. Each can cover 100 square meters.
Since we can't use part of a can, we round up to three whole cans.
The price of 3 cans :
£59.25
The Pythagorean Theorem:
The Pythagorean theorem is a very common geometry formula used to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle, given the lengths of the two other bases.
The formula is : 
- a is a leg
- b is a leg
- c is the hypotenuse

The chance of picking a almond cookie the first time:
you have 6 cookies, 3 of them are almond
So the chance of taking an almond cookie is

The second time there are 5 cookies left, 2 of them are almond cookies
The chance of taking an almond cookie is

To know the probability of picking two almond cookies in a row, multiply the changes:

The chance of taking two almond cookies is 1/5
The equation is derived from the conservation of energy, specifically from potential energy stored at a given height in a gravitational field.
When potential energy is completely converted to kinetic energy you have:
(mv^2)/2=mgh divide both sides by the mass m
v^2/2=gh multiply both sides by 2
v^2=2gh take the square root of both sides
v=√(2gh) and working with imperial units for acceleration due to gravity, g=-32ft/s^2
v=√(-64h) but the change of h as it falls is negative h so
v=-√(64h) so if an object falls from a height of 88ft we have:
v=-√(64*84)
v=-√5376
v≈-73.32 ft/sec (to the nearest hundredth of a foot per second)
Note that this is the velocity, it is negative 73.32 ft/sec.
The question inadvertently asked for velocity and provided answers for SPEED. Velocity is a vector and has both magnitude and direction, whereas speed just has magnitude.
So its final speed is 73.32 ft/sec
So if they actually wanted velocity none of their answers is correct :P
