Answer:
15, 6 and - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given x - y = 3 , then
(a)
5(x - y) = 5(3) = 15
(b)
2x - 2y ← factor out 2 from each term
= 2(x - y) = 2(3) = 6
(c)
y - x ← factor out - 1 from each term
= - 1(x - y) = - 1(3) = - 3
The area of a trapezoid is calculated using the formula: 1/2(a + b)h. The diagram shows that base number one (a) is 8.5 dm and base number two (b) is 26.5 dm. The height is 9 dm. Substitute these values into the formula.
1/2(8.5 + 26.5) * 9, add 8.5 and 26.5 inside the parentheses.
1/2(35) * 9, you can now solve from left to right. Multiply 1/2 and 35.
17.5 * 9, multiply to get your final answer. The area of the trapezoid is C. 157.5 dm^2.
You are trying to solve for k (get k by itself)
-5k - 19 = 5 - 13k Add 19 on both sides
-5k - 19 + 19 = 5 - 13k + 19
-5k = 24 - 13k Add 13k on both sides
-5k + 13k = 24 - 13k + 13k
8k = 24 Divide 8 on both sides
k = 3
