Answer:
dissect the trapezium into a square and triangle. since the triangle is a right angled one the base is 17-7=10cm
the height is found using Pythagorean theorem to be 24cm i.e 26²=x²+10²,x=√(676-100),x=√576,x=24cn
area of trapezium is (1/2)(a+b)h
a is the shorter side and b the longer side
(1/2)*(7+17)24
=288cm²
The answer is -4 2/3
Explanation : The elevator is at 0, and went below ground level 90 feet, that would be -90, then it went up 20 feet, which would be -90 + 20 = -70
-70 ft / 15sec = - 4 2/3
I am not sure about the ground level and negative difference but that it is what I was taught. Below ground level is negative and above is positive. Therefore the elevator traveled up and it traveled -4 2/3 per second.
It so either 4 2/3 or - 4 2/3 but pretty sure it is - 4 2/3.

First of all, we can observe that

So the expression becomes

This means that the expression is defined for every 
Now, since the denominator is always positive (when it exists), the fraction can only be positive if the denominator is also positive: we must ask

Since we can't accept 3 as an answer, the actual solution set is
![(-\infty,-2] \cup [2,3) \cup (3,\infty)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28-%5Cinfty%2C-2%5D%20%5Ccup%20%5B2%2C3%29%20%5Ccup%20%283%2C%5Cinfty%29)
19/38 is not reduces. Numerator and denominator can be divided by 19.
It can be reduced to 1/2
It is the middle because the top and bottom don’t add up or make sense
