Answer:
20, 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's assume total number of students registered is n
Last week n/4 people are absent
so people present are n - n/4 = <u>3n/4</u>
Today after return of Jen 1/5 n are absent
so people present are n - n/5 = 4n/5
which is also equal to last week present people + 1 (Jen)
= 3n/4 + 1
= (3n + 4) / 4
so (3n + 4) / 4 = 4n/5
=> 3n + 4 = 4n/5 * 4
=> (3n + 4) * 5 = 16n
=> 15n + 20 = 16n
=> 20 = n
=> n = 20
So total students registered for class is 20
today no of people absent = n/5 = 20/5 = 4
Hello!
To find the area of the trapezoid, you use the formula A=1/2h(a+b), where a and b represent the two base lengths.
Since we already know the two bases and the height, we can just plug them into the equation to find the area.
A=1/2·15.4(26.7+9.9)
A=1/2·15.4(36.6)
A=1/2·563.64
A=281.82
The area is 281.82 ft².
I hope this helps!

Answer:
a) ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC by AA similarity
b) ED/AB = 3/4
c) 15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Two angles in each triangle are the same, so the AA similarity postulate can be used to declare the ∆ABC ~ ∆EDC. (Each triangle includes a right angle and angle C.)
__
b) Corresponding sides are ED/AB, DC/BC, EC/AC. The ratio of corresponding sides is ED/BC = (12 cm)/(16 cm) = 3/4.
__
c) Using the ratios identified above, we have ...
DC/BC = 3/4 = x/(20 cm)
x = 3/4(20 cm)
x = 15 cm
