The area of the window is 182 square inches.

Option: B.

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

From the given data, we are given with the length of the upper side of the trapezoid, the right side's bottom excluded the length upper side's length and height of the trapezoid.

Area of an isosceles trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( a+b) h.

where a is the length of upper side of the trapezoid, b is the length of lower side of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid.

a= 12 inches.

h= 13 inches.

We are given only with the right side's length of base excluding the length of upper side.

So we have to calculate b= left side + upper side+ right side.

b= 2+12+2.

b= 16 inches.

Area of an isosceles trapezoid = $\frac{1}{2}$ (12+16)(13).

= $\frac{1}{2}$ (28)(13).

= 14(13).

= 182 square inches.

∴ Area of the window= 182 square inches.

Valentin [98]

You have velocity 1 of 5 km per hour after 1 hour and velocity 2 of 3 km per hour after 2 hours.

Part A)

Let Velocity = a +bt, with t being the time in hours.

For velocity 1 you have a +b = 5

For velocity 2, you have a + 2b =3

Now subtract velocity 1 from velocity 2:

a +2b - (a+b) = 3-5

Simplify to get b = -2

Now solve for a in the first equation:

a + b =5

Replace b with -2:

a - 2 = 5

a = 7

Now replace a and b in the original formula:

Velocity = 7 -2t

Part B)

Create a table with x and Y values to graph.

X axis would be the time and the velocity would be the Y axis

Your time would be 0 , 1, 2 3 and 4 hours.

Using the final equation from part A, replace t with the hours ans solve for the velocities, which become the y axis:

7 - 2(0) = 7-0 = 7

7 - 2(1) = 7-2 = 5

7 - 2(2) = 7-4 = 3

7 - 2(3) = 7-6 = 1

7-2(4) = 7-8 = -1

Now you have your x and y coordinates to plot on a graph:

(0,7) (1,5) (2,3) (3,1) and (4,-1)

Error Analysis: Pedro compares 7/33 and 2/11. He incorrectly says 7/33 < 2/11 because 4.71 < 5.50. Compare 7/33 and 2/11.

madreJ [45]

He divided the wrong way. 7/33 = .2121.....and 2/11 = .1818...., so actually 2/11 < 7/33

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

A) 0.15

B) 0.36

Step-by-step explanation:

First Box consist 1 red pills and 19 blue pills

second box consist 6 red pills and 14 blue pills

Third box consist 2 red pills and 18 blue pills

a) Prob ( randomly chosen pill is red) $= \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{6}{20} + \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{2}{20}$

$\frac{1}{60} (1+6+2) = 0.15$

b)Prob ( 1 reds and 10 blue pilss) = $\frac{1}{3} \frac{^1C_1\times ^{19}C_{10}}{^{20}C_{11}} + \frac{1}{3} \frac{^6C_1\times ^{14}C_{10}}{^{20}C_{11}} + \frac{1}{3} \frac{^2C_1\times ^{18}C_{10}}{^{20}C_{11}}$

$= \frac{1}{3} 1.106 = 0.368$
