Isosceles trapezoid ABCD has legs AB and CD, and base BC. If AB = 3y - 4, BC = 2y -3, and CD = 4y - 18, find the value of y.

Answer:

   (6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is an isosceles trapezoid the length of the two legs (i.e.  AB = 5y-10 and CD = 2y+8) are equal.  In other words,

5y - 10 = 2 y + 8

Subtract 2y from each side:

5y - 2y - 10 = 8

Now add 10 to each side

5y - 2y - 10 + 10 = 8 + 10 =>

3y + 0 = 18 =>  

3y = 18 =>

y = 6

Determine the intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, and constant. (5 points)
Luden [163]

Answer:

B. Increasing in x < -1 and decreasing in x > -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the graph of a function and is required to find the interval in which the function is increasing, decreasing or constant.

Now, from the graph we can see that the critical point i.e. the point at which the graph changes the direction is x = -1.

We observe that the function on the left side of x = -1 is going upwards to reach the point x = -1 and the function on the right side of x = -1 is going downwards.

Hence, we get that the function in increasing in x < -1 and decreasing in x > -1.

For 10 feet and 6 inches,           

12 inches = 1 foot, therefore 6 inches = 6/12 foot = 0.5 foot

10 feet 6 inches = 10 + 0.5 = 10.5 feet


7 feet required 3 pints

1 foot would have required (3/7) pints

10.5 feet will then require:      (3/7)*10.5 = 4.5 pints.

Therefore 10 feet and 6 inches will require 4.5 pints.

14y+36=106 solve the problem
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

14y + 36 = 106. subtract 36 from both sides, so now the equation is 14y = 70 because 36 is cancelled out. now divide both 14y and 70 by 14, which leaves you with y = 5
