Answer:

48, 54 and 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three multiples be 6x, 6(x+1) and 6(x+2) respectively.

6x+6(x+1)+6(x+2)=162

6x+6x+6+6x+12=162

18x=144

x=8

Therefore, the three multiples are 6(8), 6(8+1) and 6(8+2)

i.e. 48, 54 and 60

A table top in the shape of a trapezoid has an area of 2250 square centimeters and the shorter base is 80 centimeters. The longe

Citrus2011 [14]

The area of a trapezoid has a formula of:
Area = (a + b) h / 2

Using the formula, we can easily find the height of the trapezoid.
<span>Area = (a + b) h / 2
</span>2250 = (80 + 100) h / 2
2250 = 180h / 2
2250 = 90h
h = 25 centimeters

So the height of the trapezoid is 25 centimeters.
