The area <em>A</em> of a trapezoid with height <em>h</em> and bases <em>b</em>₁ and <em>b</em>₂ is equal to the average of the bases times the height:
<em>A</em> = (<em>b</em>₁ + <em>b</em>₂) <em>h</em> / 2
We're given <em>A</em> = 864, <em>h</em> = 24, and one of the bases has length 30, so
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 24 / 2
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12
864 = (<em>b</em>₁ + 30) 12
72 = <em>b</em>₁ + 30
<em>b</em>₁ = 42
The answer to 9 would be (-3,-4) and (2,6) because if you plug in -3 for x in either of the equations and plug in 4 for y in the equations, both sides of the equation are the same number. also, if you plug in 2 for x and 6 for y both sides of the equation equal each other. The answer to 10 is (-1,1) and (7,33). if you plug them in they are equal:)
Answer:
2, 18, 56.54
