Given that,

The height of a trapezoid is (2x + 9).

The bases can be expressed as (3x - 7) and (x + 5).

To find,

An expression represent the area of the trapezoid.

Solution,

The formula for the area of trapezoid is given by :

A=\dfrac{1}{2}(\text{sum of bases})\times \text{height}

Put all the values,

A=\dfrac{1}{2}(3x-7+x+5)\times (2x+9)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}(4x-2)\times (2x+9)\\\\=(2x-1)(2x+9)\\\\A=2x(2x)+9(2x)+(-1)(2x)+(-1)(9)\\\\=4x^2+18x-2x-9\\\\=4x^2+16x-9

So, the area of the trapezoid will be (4x^2+16x-9)\ \text{units}^2

Find the radius of a circle whose circumference is 31.4 centimeters. Approximate Π as 3.14.
sladkih [1.3K]

The circumference of every circle is   (pi) times (diameter).

The diameter is (2 x radius), so we can write

                  Circumference = (pi) x (2 x radius) .

The question gives us the circumference, and the number to use for (pi).
I shall now pluggum in:

                  (31.4 cm)  =  (3.14) x (2 x radius)

Divide each side by  3.14:       (31.4 cm)/(3.14)  =  2 x radius

Divide each side by 2 :            (31.4 cm) / (2 x 3.14)  =  radius

                                                             5 cm  =  radius
