Answer:
135 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = h(a + b)
where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 9, a = 13 and b = 17 , thus
A = × 9 × (13 + 17)
= 0.5 × 9 × 30
= 135 cm²
I am doing with Question Number 2
Let the two numbers be 'x' and 'y'.
According to the question, the product of two numbers is 14.
So, xy=14 (Equation 1)
Now, one of the numbers is 3 ½ times the other.
So,
(Equation 2)
Substituting the value of 'x' from equation 2 in equation 1, we get
So, y= 2 and -2
So, and
x=7 and -7
Numbers are 2,7 and -2,-7.
Sum of numbers 2 and 7 = 9
Sum of numbers -2 and -7 = -9.
