Answer:
(Some textbooks describe direct variation by saying " y varies directly as x ", " y varies proportionally as x ", or " y is directly proportional to x . ") This means that as x increases, y increases and as x decreases, y decreases—and that the ratio between them always stays the same.
What is the shape the question asks
Answer:
500 square units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The hexagon is composed of two trapezoids (both of which are congruent). Let's find the area of the top trapezoid
A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 10*(40+10)/2
A = 10*(50)/2
A = 500/2
A = 250
Each trapezoid has area of 250 square units. So the combined area is 2*250 = 500 square units.
