Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

- 5 x + 1 = 31

subtract 1 from 31

- 5 x = 31 - 1

- 5 x = 30

Divide 30 by - 5

x = 30 / - 5

x = - 6

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 1 = 31

Subtract 1 from each side

-5x + 1-1 = 31-1

-5x = 30

Divide by -5

-5x/-5 = 20/-5

x = -6

What is the area, in square feet, of the trapezoid below?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:  " 94. 6  ft² ".
_____________________

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid:
______________________
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * (perpendicular height, "h" ) ;

      in which:
______________________
 "A = area (in units of ft²) "

 "b1 = length of (base one) = 7.7 ft (from diagram) ;  

 "b2 = length of (base two—the other base) = 14.3 ft. ;
 "h = height (perpendicular) = 8.6 ft.
_______________________

To solve for the Area, "A" ; we plug in the known values:
_______________________
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * (perpendicular height, "h" );

   =  (1/2) * (7.7 ft + 14.3 ft) * (8.6 ft) ;

  = (1/2) * (22 ft.) * (8.6 ft) ;

  = (11 ft.) * (8.6 ft.) ;

   = (11) * (8.6) * (ft.) * (ft.) ;

   = (11) * (8.6) * ft² ;

A  =   " 94. 6  ft² ".

Softa [21]

Answer:

(-1, -1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint, add the x coordinates and divide by 2

( -11+9)/2 = -2/2 = -1

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint, add the y coordinates and divide by 2

(0+-1)/2 = -1/2

(-1, -1/2)
