Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be 20x and 10x

Then by the question,

20x + 10x = 300

or, 30x = 300

or, x = 300/ 30

x = 10

Now the larger number

20x = 20* 10 = 200.

Hope it will help you :)

A country is shaped like a trapezoid. It's northern border is about 9.6 miles across,and the southern border is approximately 25

Nostrana [21]

The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
A = 0.5(b₁ + b₂)h
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given,
A = 0.5(9.6 + 25)(90) = 1557 mi²
Therefore, the approximate area of the country is 1557 mi².
