Answer:
There are 7,725 square feet of grass on the trapezoidal field
Step-by-step explanation:
Here in this question, we are interested in calculating the square feet of grass present on the trapezoidal field.
What this question is actually asking us is to calculate the area of the trapezoid-shaped grass field.
To calculate this area, what we need to do
simply is to use the formula for the area of a trapezoid.
Mathematically, the area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the formula;
Area of trapezoid = 1/2 * (a + b) * h
where a and b refers to the length of the parallel lengths of the trapezoid and h refers to the height of the trapezoid.
From the question;
a, b = 81ft and 125 ft
h = 75 ft
Substituting these values, we have :
Area = 1/2 * (81 + 125) * 75
Area = 1/2 * 206 * 75 = 83 * 75 = 7,725 ft^2
280*3= 840
3 journals is about 840 grams
Answer:
Let the speed of the train be x km/h.
Case 1:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = x km/h
Time = Distance/Speed
= 288/x h
Case 2:
Distance = 288 km
Speed = (x+4) km/h
Time = 288/x + 4 h
Since 288/x > 288/x + 4
288/x - 288/x+4 = 1
288[1/x - 1/x+4 ] = 1
[ x + 4 - x / x(x + 4) ] = 1/288
[4 / x^2 + 4x ] = 1/288
x^2 + 4x = 1152
x^2 + 4x - 1152 = 0
x^2 + 36x - 32x - 1152 = 0
x(x + 36) - 32(x + 36) = 0
(x + 36)(x - 32) = 0
x + 36 = 0 , x - 32 = 0
x = -36 , x = 32
x = -36 , rejected since speed cannot be negative.
Therefore , speed of the train = 32 km/h
Okay, so as you may know the inside angles of a triangle always add up to 180! so you must first find x, so that means add up all equations to find x. your answer is 41
