Answer:

104.8 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 ways to solve this problem.

The 1st way:

Let's make 2 triangles and 1 rectangle:

Rectangle Length = 8.3

Rectangle Width = 8

So, the left out length will be 17.9 - 8.3

=> 9.6

Since, 9.6 cm is for 2 parts.

=> 9.6 / 2

=> 4.8

So, Height of the Triangle = 8

      Base of the triangle = 4.8

Area of a rectangle

=> 8.3 x 8

=> 66.4

Area of the triangle

=> 1/2 x 8 x 4.8

=> 4 x 4.8

=> 19.2

There are 2 triangles:

=> 19.2 x 2

=> 38.4

=> 66.4 + 38.4

=> 104.8

The area of the trapezoid = 104.8 in^2.

The 2nd way is:

Area of a trapezoid

=> Smaller Base + Larger Base / 2 x Height

=> 8.3 + 17.9 / 2 x 8

=> 26.2 / 2 x 8

=> 13.1 x 8

=> 104.8

The area of the trapezoid is 104.8 in^2

A plumber has a set fee for a house call and charges by the hour for repairs. The total cost of her services can be modeled by c
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

1, 2 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

t -----> the number of hours the job takes

C(t) -----> the total cost for the service

we have

C(t)=125t+95

This is the equation of a line in slope intercept form

where

The slope m is equal to m=125\ \frac{\$}{h}

The y-intercept is the point (0,95) ---> The cost is $95 for the value of t equal zero (fee)

therefore

<u><em>The statements that are true</em></u>

1 a house call fee costs $95

2 the plumber charges $125 per hour

3 the number of hours the job takes is represented by t

Which graphs represent functions with the following key features?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Graph U

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph is used to illustrate the relationship between variables.

For graph U:

Graph U is positive on (-∞, ∞). The graph also increases on (-∞, ∞). The graph approaches 0 as x approaches -∞.

For graph V:

Graph V is positive on (-∞, ∞). The graph also increases on (-∞, ∞). The graph is negative as x approaches -∞.

For graph W:

Graph W is positive on (-∞, 0). The graph also increases on (-∞, 0). The graph approaches 0 as x approaches -∞.

For graph X:

Graph X is positive on (-∞, ∞). The graph also increases on (-∞, ∞). The graph is negative as x approaches -∞

For graph Y:

Graph Y is positive on (-∞, ∞). The graph also decreases on (-∞, ∞). The graph approaches 0 as x approaches ∞.

For graph Z:

Graph Z is negative on (-∞, ∞). The graph also decreases on (-∞, ∞). The graph is approaches 0 as x approaches -∞

Use substitution to solve the sy<br> 2x+3y = 19<br> x = 2y-1<br> Solve for x and y
svp [43]

Answer: Y=3, X=5

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2y-1) + 3y=19

4y-2+ 3y=19

7y=21

Y=3

Plug in y in the second equals

X=2(3) -1

X=6-1

X=5

Hope this helps!
