Well the area of a trapezoid is defined by the following formula:
A =
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases of the trapezoid and h is the height of the trapezoid.
Let's plug in what we know into this formula:
h = 7 the perpendicular distance between the two bases
b₁ = 15 the shorter parallel side
b₂ = 25 the longer parallel side made up of 4 + 15 + 6
so, A =
This is in square units of measure of course, so 140 in²
RHS

=not defined=0
LHS
=x-2x+3x+4/7=2x+4/7=(14x+4)/7= 14x+4.
14x=-4
x=-4/14
X=-2/7
(0,5) (-3, -1) (1, 7) (2, 9) (-5, -5)
answer:
y=5.5x
explanation:
rise over run=rise/run= x/y
for every t shirt or "y" multiply 5.5 and it will give u the total cost or"x"
Let's start out by setting up three separate equations for each customer.
d = cost of drink, f = cost of fries, h = cost of hamburger
Miller Family: 4h + 3f = 13.27
James: d + h + 2f = 6.33
Steven: 2h + f + d = 7.04
Since the Miller's didn't order any drinks, let's start by using substitution to find the cost of d between James and Steven.
Let's isolate d with James:
d + h + 2f = 6.33
d = 6.33 - h - 2f
Now let's plug that into Steven's equation:
2h + f + d = 7.04
2h + f + (6.33 - h - 2f) = 7.04
h - f + 6.33 = 7.04
h - f = 0.71
h = 0.71 + f
Let's plug that new h into the Miller Family's equation:
4h + 3f = 13.27
4(0.71 + f) + 3f = 13.27
2.84 + 4f + 3f = 13.27
2.84 + 7f = 13.27
7f = 10.43
f = 1.49
So medium fries cost $1.49
Let's plug f back into the Miller Family's equation to get h:
4h + 3f = 13.27
4h + 3(1.49) = 13.27
4h + 4.47 = 13.27
4h = 8.8
h = 2.2
So a hamburger costs $2.20
Let's plug h and f into Steven's equation to calculate d
2h + f + d = 7.04
2(2.2) + (1.49) + d = 7.04
4.4 + 1.49 + d = 7.04
5.89 + d = 7.04
d = 1.15
So a medium drink costs $1.15
The answer is B. Drink = $1.15, Fries = $1.49, Hamburger = $2.20
