Answer:

390 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The longer base of a trapezoid is 8 ft. The longer base of a similar trapezoid is 13 ft. The area of the smaller trapezoid is 240 ft² What is the area of the larger trapezoid?

We solve the above question using proportion

(Longer base/Area of trapezoid) smaller trapezoid = (Longer base/Area of trapezoid) bigger trapezoid

Let the the Area of the bigger trapezoid = x

Hence,

= 8ft/240ft = 13ft/x ft

Cross Multiply

8ft × x = 240ft × 13ft

x = 240ft² × 12 ft/8 ft

x = 390 ft²

Spaceship Earth, a spherical attraction at Walt Disney worlds epcot center, has a diameter of 50 meters. Find the surface area o
gladu [14]

Answer:

The surface area of the structure is SA=2,500\pi\ m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a sphere is equal to

SA=4\pi r^{2}

In this problem we have

r=50/2=25\ m -----The radius is half the diameter

substitute

SA=4\pi (25)^{2}

SA=2,500\pi\ m^{2}

In an arithmetic sequence {an}, if a1 = 5 and d = 3, find a72. A) 216 B) 218 C) 221 D) 223
Phoenix [80]

The arithmetic sequence with the given condition is determined recursively by

\begin{cases}a_1=5\\a_n=a_{n-1}+3&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}

So we have

a_2=a_1+3

a_3=a_2+3=a_1+3(2)

a_4=a_3+3=a_1+3(3)

and so on with the general pattern

a_n=a_1+3(n-1)

This means the 72nd term in the sequence is

a_{72}=a_1+3(72-1)=5+3(71)=218

so the answer is B.
