Answer: 2(x+y)-25
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to show the sum of Roger and Olivia's heights. If Roger is x and Olivia is y, the sum is <em>x+y</em>
Next, we need to double that. To double something we multiply it by 2. Since we need double the expression we found above, we put it in parentheses. So the doubled sum is shown as <em>2(x+y)</em>
Finally, we need to show that Isabella is 25 centimeters shorter than the doubled sum. To do that, subtract 25.
The final expression for Isabella's height is 2(x+y)-25
Another way to solve this is to use the Midpoint Formula. The midpoint of a segment joining points

and

is

So the midpoint of your segment is

Perhaps it helps to see that the x-coordinate of the midpoint is just the average of the x-coordinates of the points. Ditto for the y-coordinate of the midpoint; just average the y's.

1/4 of a mile is 0.25
0.25 divided by 4 = 0.0625 each
Answer:
A = 57.97 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated as
A =
h (a + b)
where h is the perpendicular height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 6.2, a = 10.8 and b = 7.9, thus
A =
× 6.2 × (10.8 + 7.9) = 3.1 × 18.7 = 57.97 cm²
