The length of one base of a trapezoid is 19 less than five times the length of the other base. If the trapezoid has a height of

18 feet and an area of 477 ft squared, find the length of the longer base.

Area of a trapezoid: [(top +bottom)*height]/2
suppose the length of one base is x, then the other base is 5x-19
[(x+5x-19)*18]/2=477
[6x-19]*18=954
6x-19=53
6x=72
x=12
The longer base is 5*12-19=41

Answer:

Note that the tangents to the circles at A and B intersect at a point Z on XY by radical center. Then, since∠ZAB=∠ZQA and ∠ZBA=∠ZQB. ∠AZB+∠AQB=∠AZB+∠ZAB+∠ZBA=180°. ∴ZAQB is cyclic.But if O is the center of w, clearly ZAOB is cyclic with diameter ZO, so ∠ZQO is 90° ⇒Q is the mid-point of XY.Then, by Power of a Point, PY· PX = PA · PB = 15 and it is given that PY+PX = 11. Thus,PX=(11±\sqrt{61})/2. So, PQ=\frac{\sqrt{61} }{2}, PQ²=\frac{61}{4}. Thus, the answer is 61+4=65.

Answer:

About $1,178,974

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, the sequence we have right now is:

500,000       550,000      605,000

We want to find the common ratio, so let's divide 550,000 by 500,000 and see if we get the same value as 605,000 divided by 550,000:

550,000/500,000 = 1.1

605,000/550,000 = 1.1

Now, we know that r = 1.1. We also know the first term is: a_1 = 500,000.

We use the explicit rule of a geometric sequence:

a_n=a_1*r^{n-1}

Here, we want to find a_{10} , which means that n = 10. We know r and a_1, so we just plug in these values:

a_{10}=500,000*(1.1)^{10-1}=500,000*(1.1)^{9} ≈ 1,178,973.85 ≈ 1,178,974

Thus, the answer is about $1,178,974.

Hope this helps!
