Question

Can y’all help me on question 3?!

Answer 1

Answer:

Isha needs 60 gallons of paints to the wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of trapezoid shaped like wall is given by :-

Area of trapezoid = 1/2 × ( Base ¹ + Base ² ) × H

Where,

B ¹ and B ² are the length of bases and H is the perpendicular distance between them.

Area of wall = 1/2 × ( Base¹ + Base²) × Height

Where, according to question we have

• Base ¹ = 5 t
• Base ² = 15 ft
• And , Height = 6 ft

substitute the values

Area = 1/2 × ( 5 ft + 15 ft ) × 6 ft

add the values of Base¹ and Base ²

Area = 1/2 × 20 ft × 6 ft

multiply

Area = 1 / 2 × 120 ft ²

divide

Area = 120 ft ² / 2 = 60 ft ²

It takes 1 gallon to cover 1 ft ². ... ( given)

So, For covering 60 ft ² it takes 60 gallons .

check

( 1 × 60 ) gallon = 60 ft ²

60 gallon = 60 ft²

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  60 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the trapezoid-shaped wall is given by ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel sides, and h is the perpendicular distance between them.

The area of the wall is ...

  A = (1/2)(5 ft + 15 ft)(6 ft) = 60 ft²

If it takes 1 gallon to cover 1 square foot, then it will take 60 gallons to cover 60 square feet.

Isha needs 60 gallons of paint.
