Answer:
The area of the shape (trapezoid) is 55 square feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to get the area of a trapezoid is 
. b1 is one of the bases, b2 is the other and h is the height.
First, you need to find the average of the bases:
(15+7=22)/2=11
Then, you multiply that by the height.
11*5=55
Lastly, you add the units.
55 square feet is the answer
If you're solving for a, you would add 32 to both sides
2a=32
then you would divide by 2
a=16
Answer:
2500 Square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the garden area (as a function of its width) as:
The maximum possible area occurs when we maximize the area. To do this, we take the derivative, set it equal to zero and solve for w.
A'(w)=-2w+100
-2w+100=0
-2w=-100
w=50 meters
Since Marquise has 200 meters of fencing to build a rectangular garden,
Perimeter of the proposed garden=200 meters
Perimeter=2(l+w)
2(l+50)=200
2l+100=200
2l=200-100=100
l=50 meters
The dimensions that will yield the maximum area are therefore:
Length =50 meters
Width=50 meters
Maximum Area Possible =50 X 50 =<u>2500 square meters.</u>
Answer: Yes he will be
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out if Ted can afford the car, find the future value of $4,300 in three years.
First convert the number of years and rates to quarterly values as this is the compounding period:
Term = 3 * 4 quarters = 12 quarters
Rate = 5.5% / 4 = 1.375% per quarter
Future value = Amount * ( 1 + rate) ^ term
= 4,300 * ( 1 + 1.375%)¹²
= $5,065.69
<em>Considering that Ted makes $5,065.69 in 3 years, he will be able to buy a car that costs $4,700.</em>
Tan socks = 4
Grey socks = 7
Total number of socks = 4+7 = 11 socks
Probability of picking a tan sock then grey sock:
P(T)*P(G) = (4/11)*(7/10) = 14/54
Probability of picking a Grey sock then Tan sock
P(G)*P(T) = (7/11)*(4/10) = 14/55
Probability of two different colored socks
P(T&G)+P(G&T) = (14/55)+(14/55) = 28/55
