Answer
b. 32 sq. unit
Step-by-step Explanation
The area of the trapezoid is given by
We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain;
Simplify
Hence the area is
You would equal the equations together then solve for a variable.
-4x - 3 = -2x + 1
-4x + 2x = 1 + 3
-2x = 4
—— —-
-2 -2
x = -2
then take that x value and substitute it into any one of the equations.
Equation #1
y = -4(-2) -3
= 8 - 3
= 5
Equation #2
y = -2(-2) + 1
= 4 + 1
= 5
824 just add all the sides so 12+12+400+400=824 and in simpler form w2+l2
at first we write each one as a sequence
and find its equation
the first table
-19, -11, -3, 5
8x-19
the third table
15,12,9,6
-3x+15
the second table
-1. 5,1.5,3,4.5
+3 +1.5 +1.5
so the third table is the nonlinear function
