Answer:
The maglev train can reach a top speed of 431 km/h (268 mph).
Step-by-step explanation
In this problem, you are asked to find the area of the
trapezoid. The formula in finding the area of the trapezoid is:
A = [(a + b)/2] x h
Where a = base 1
b = base
2
h =
height
Substituting the given measurements to the formula:
A = [(1.7 m + 6.7 m) / 2] x 5 m
A = (8.4 m / 2) x 5 m
A = 4.2 m x 5 m
A = 21 m^2
Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is 21 square meters.
3x+20=5x+12
-3x -3x
20= 2x +12
-12 -12
8=2x
Divide both sides by two
4=x
It will take four days (this is how to solve algebraically)
