The area of any trapezoid is
Area = (1/2) x (height) x (one base + the other base) .
Take that formula and write in the numbers you know:
(24 m²) = (1/2) x (height) x (5m + 7m)
(24 m²) = (6m) x (height)
Divide each side by 6m :
Height = (24 m² / 6m)
= 4 m .
1/2 scale factor for them to be equal to each other :)
X=- 4/5
X=-0.8
That’s the answer to your problem to your question
Answer:
x = 112
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create two equations 1. one that calculates calories burned and 2.another that calculates minutes:
20*x + 5*y = 1200
x + y = 120
Then we can solve for x
x = 120 - y
then we can plug that into the top equation:
20(120 - y) + 5y = 1200
divide by 5:
4(120 - y) + y = 240
distribute:
480 - 4y + y = 240
and then do all that combining like factors what not and simplify and solve:
480 - 3y = 240
-3y = -240
y = 8
NOW WE CAN JUST PLUG IN THE ANSWER FOR Y TO FIND X
8+x =120
x = 112
