Answer:
dissect the trapezium into a square and triangle. since the triangle is a right angled one the base is 17-7=10cm
the height is found using Pythagorean theorem to be 24cm i.e 26²=x²+10²,x=√(676-100),x=√576,x=24cn
area of trapezium is (1/2)(a+b)h
a is the shorter side and b the longer side
(1/2)*(7+17)24
=288cm²
What are both of their schedules? If they are completely different, then the next time they will leave together is 4:00 pm the next day
X-4y=-18
an easy way is to solve for oone variable
solve for x
add 4y both sides
x=4y-18
when y=1, x=-16
when y=0, x=-18
when y=2, x=-10
(x,y)
so some orderd pairs are
(-16,1)
(-18,0)
(-10,2)
