The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:

A= (a+b)/2*h

A=150
h=10
b=14
a=?

So we need to solve for a. Let's plug in the values that we do know...

A= (a+b)/2*h
150=(a+14)/2*10
150=(a/2+14/2)*10
150=(a/2+7)*10
Divide both sides by 10
15=a/2+7
subtract 7 from both sides
8=a/2
multiply both sides by 2
16=a

The other base is 16

A<span> is the area of a trapezoid
a and b are the lengths of its two bases
h is the height 
Let x be the shorter base.
Then the longer base is x+2 
Substituting the following into the formula
a = x

b = x+2
A = 150
h = 10
we have 

Solving for x, we have
So the shorter one is 14 meters long, the longer one is 16 meters long

svp [43]

Answer:

<h3>y + 2 = 3/7(x-7)</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation will be expressed as;

y - y0 = m(x-x0) where;

m is the slope

(x0, y0) is the point on the line

Given

Slope m = 3/7

Point (x0, y0) = (7, -2)

Substitute into the equation;

y - y0 = m(x-x0)

y - (-2) = 3/7 (x - 7)

<em>y + 2 = 3/7(x-7)</em>

<em>Hence the equation in point-slope form is y + 2 = 3/7(x-7)</em>
