Answer:
42cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
because if the perimeter of the rectangle is 28 then the length is 5, 5 - 11 = 6, the formula for finding the trapezium is to add the 2 parallel sides, half them, then times them with the length so your sum will look like this, 5+9=14, (i knew the other side was 9 as the length of AB is the same as the length of FC, which is the one of the parallel sides of the trapezium) then we do 14÷2=7, finally we times 7 by 6 which is 42cm²
Hey there!!
Given equation :
... 2 ( x - ( 3 + 2x ) + 9 ) = 3x - 8
Using the distributive property.
... 2 ( x - 3 - 2x + 9 ) = 3x - 8
... 2 ( -x + 6 ) = 3x - 8
Using the distributive property.
... -2x + 12 = 3x - 8
Subtracting 12 on both sides.
... -2x = 3x - 8 - 12
... -2x = 3x - 20
Subtracting 3x on both sides.
... -2x - 3x = -20
... -5x = -20
Dividing by -5 on both sides.
... x = -20 / -5
... x = 4
<em>Hence, the answer is 4. </em>
Hope my answer helps!
