Answer:

39.6 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is given as:

Area of a Trapezoid = 1/2(a + b) h

Where, from the question:

a = 8.9 cm

b = 5.5 cm

h = 5.5cm

Hence,

1/2 (8.9cm + 5.5cm) × 5.5cm

= 1/2 × 14.4 cm × 5.5 cm

= 39.6 cm²

Area of the Trapezoid = 39.6 cm²

$\text{Hey there!}$

$\mathsf{Solve: 6 -x- x=18}$

$\mathsf{Combine\ your\ like\ terms}\\\mathsf{6 -\bf{x - x}\mathsf{= 18}}\\\mathsf{-x-x=-2x}\\\mathsf{Your\ new\ equation: -2x+6=18}\\\\\mathsf{Do\ the\ OPPOSITE\ symbol\ on\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation}\\\mathsf{Addition\ opposite\ symbol\ is\ subtraction}\\\mathsf{Subtract\ by\ 6\ on\ your\ sides}\\\mathsf{-2x+6-6=18-6}\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out{6-6\ because\ it\ gives\ us\ 0}}\\\mathsf{Keep:18-6\ because\ it\ helps\ us\solve\ for\ the\ answer}\\\\\mathsf{Next,\ divide\ both\ sides\ by\ -2}$

$\mathsf{\dfrac{-2x}{-2}=\dfrac{12}{-2}}\\\\\mathsf{Cancel\ out: \dfrac{-2x}{-2}\ because\ it\ gives\ you\ the\ result\ of 1}\\\\\mathsf{Keep:\dfrac{12}{-2}\ because\ it\ gives\ the\ answer\ of\ x}\\\\\\\boxed{\bf{Answer:\mathsf{x=-6}}}}}}}\checkmark$

A paperweight is shaped like a triangular pyramid. The base is an equilateral triangle. Find the surface area of the paperweight

melomori [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

three triangles with the base b = 2 in. and the height h₁ = 2.2 in.

one triangle with the base b = 2 in. and the height h₂ = 1.7 in.

The formula of an area of a triangle:

$A=\dfrac{b\cdot h}{2}$

b - base

h - height

Substitute:

$A_1=\dfrac{(2)(2.2)}{2}=\dfrac{4.4}{2}=2.2\ in^2$

$A_2=\dfrac{(2)(1.7)}{2}=1.7\ in^2$

$S.A.=3A_1+A_2$

$S.A.=3(2.2)+1.7=6.6+1.7=8.3\ in^2$

Answer:

12 marbles per bag

Step-by-step explanation:

Your equation would be 3x=x+24 because you have 3 bags of marbles with x number of marbles per bag, and your friend has 1 bag with x marbles plus 2 additional marbles

Then you solve this equation

3x=x+24

Subtract x from both sides

2x=24

divide both sides by 2

x=12
