15. Scott and Tara were asked to find the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Both Scott and Tara have responded correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a trapezoid is equal to

A=(1/2)[b1+b2]h

we have

b1=16 cm

b2=24 cm

h=8 cm -----> <em>Note</em> The height is 8 cm instead of 18 cm

substitute

A=(1/2)[16+24](8)

A=160 cm²

<em>Verify Scott 's work</em>

<em>Note</em> Scott wrote A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8) instead of A = 2(24 + 16)(8)

Remember that the Commutative Property establishes "The order of the addends does not alter its result"

so

(24+16)=(16+24)

A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8)=160 cm²

<em>Verify Tara's work</em>

<em>Note</em> Tara wrote A = (1/2)(16+24)(8) instead of A = (16 + 24)(8)

A = (1/2)(16+24)(8)=160 cm²

The table below shows the number of customers that come eat lunch at a local deli each week.
jek_recluse [69]

The table of the number of customers illustrates two different patterns

Deli should expect 90 customers to serve during week 8

<h3>How to determine the number of customers</h3>

From the table, the even number of week increases by 10, while the odd number of weeks reduces by 5.

At week 6, the number of customers is 80.

So, the number of customers at week 8 is:

Week 8 = Week 6 + 10

This gives

Week 8 = 80 + 10

Week 8 = 90

Hence, deli should expect 90 customers to serve during week 8

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation?<br> -3x – y = 6<br> Choose 1 answer:
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I can not see your answers to choose but with this equation for 2 variables, you can replace the values of x and y and see if that is right or not.

For example, to know (-2,5) is a solution, you replace x= -2 and y= 5

into this equation: -3x -y = 6

and you have: -3*(-2) -5 =6

or 6-5 =6, and you find that is impossible, so (-2.5) is not a solution.

Hope you understand it
