Remark
This is quite a nice little problem. It takes a minute or three to figure out the answer, and when you do, you will be certain that you have been tricked. It is a little like the egg of Columbus.
Solution
The Base of Triangle ABN is AB
The Base of Triangle CDM is CD
The height of both given triangles is h. That is the distance between the two parallel lines.
Area ABN = 1/2*AB * h = 23 cm^2
Area CDM = 1/2*CD * h = 18 cm^2
Now the Area of the trapezoid is
Area_Trapezoid = 1/2 * h (AB + CD) Using the distributive property Remove the brackets.
Area_Trapezoid = 1/2*AB*h + 1/2*CD*h Did you notice something? Those terms are just the area of the triangles (written above.)
Area Trapezoid = 23 + 18 = 41 cm^2 <<<< Answer
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
the country would need 30 to 33 trees
4 over 3.2 = 6 over 4.8
I hope this helps!!
Answer: 112 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Rewrite 
as a decimal. Divide the numerator and the denominator of the fractional part and add it to the integer part:
2. You know that each metal rod is 15 inches long. Then, you must divide the lenght of each one by 3.6:
3. The waste is 0.16, therefore, you obtain 4 pieces from a metal rod. The total pieces obtained from 28 metal rods are:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) A number <em>m</em> is at least four
<em>m ≥ 4 ['at least' = ≥ symbol]</em>
<em />
2) 4x ≤ 20x; x=2
4(2) ≤ 20(2)
8 ≤ 40
[Im not sure if this is a solution or and inequality :/ ]
3) x < 5
--> On the line, draw the number 0, and the number five. 'x < 5' also means 'x is less that five.' So, draw a dot over the line before 5, and make an arrow going to the left of the page,
<-----------------------------------o 5
