The volume of the given trapezoidal prism is 312 cubic units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
To find the volume of a trapezoidal prism, we multiply the area of the trapezoidal surface with the height of the prism.
The area of a trapezoidal surface, 
a and b are the lengths of the upper and lower bases and h is the height of the trapezoid.
For the given trapezoid, a is 5 units long and b is 8 units long while height, h is 4 units.
The area of the trapezoidal surface, 
So the area of the trapezoidal surface is 26 square units.
Step 2:
To determine the volume of the prism, we multiply the area of the trapezoidal surface with the height of the prism.
The area is 26 square units and the height of the prism is 12 units.
The volume of the prism, 
The volume of the given trapezoidal prism is 312 cubic units.
Answer:
x = 5 and value of y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
using substitution method
let;
x + 4y = 13...................... equation 1
x - y = 3............................... equation 2
from equation 2
x - y = 3.................................... eqn 2
x = y + 3.......................................... equation 3
put x = y + 3 in equation 1
x + 4y = 13...................... equation 1
y + 3 + 4y = 13
5y = 13 - 3
5y = 10
divide both sides by 5
i.e
5y/5 = 10/5
y = 2
sustitue for y = 2 in equation 3
x = y + 3.......................................... equation 3
x = 2 + 3
x = 5
therefore the value of x = 5 and value of y = 2
to check if your answwer is correct slot in the value of x and y in any of the equation . e.g
from equation 3
x = y + 3.......................................... equation 3
5= 2 + 3
5 =5....................... proved
Do you have a picture of the trapezoid graphed ?
The change in the first round is -22.
The change in the second round is unknown, so we let x = the change in the second round.
When we add the two changes we get an overall change of 0.
-22 + x = 0
Add 22 to both sides of the equation.
x = 22
The change in the second round is 22 points because when you add 22 points to -22 points you get the overall change of 0 points.
