Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 8y + 5z
I put the equations in parentheses, assuming that I would be adding both of the equations together. Then, I removed them and combined the like terms. I used two calculators to check my answer, and this should be correct.
Answer:
119 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a trapezoid, use this formula: (a+b)/2 * h
Substitute 24, 10, and 7 for a, b, and h, respectively.
((24 + 10)/2) * 7
<em>Step 1: Add 24 and 10 to get 34.</em>
(34/2) * 7
<em>Step 2: Divide 34 by 2 to get 17.</em>
17 * 7
<em>Step 3: Multiply 17 by 7 to get 119</em>
119
The area of this trapezoid is 119 square units.
For number 12 you need to make an expression using the information given. a) 25g + 18r + 15b could be the expression.
b) The variables would be 25g for the 25 gold seats, 18r for the 18 red seats and 15b for the 15 blue seats.
c) Plug in the number given according to the variables.
25(100) + 18(250) + 15(200)
2500 + 4500 + 3000
7000 + 3000
$10,000
First we expand the brackets:
-2a + 8 + 6a = 36
4a + 8 = 36
We then need to get the a's onto one side and the numbers onto the other:
4a = 28
We can then divide to get an x by itself:
a = 28/4 = 7
