I need help with number 4 please help

Gemiola [76]

You have to multiply 3 by 10 and 8 by 3, then subtract them

30/80 - 24/80 = 6/80

then simplify

6/2 and 80/2

3/40

Answer:

A) The height of the trapezoid is 6.5 centimeters.

B) We used an algebraic approach to to solve the formula for $b_{1}$ . $b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot A}{h}-b_{2}$

C) The length of the other base of the trapezoid is 20 centimeters.

D) We can find their lengths as both have the same length and number of variable is reduced to one, from $b_{1}$ and $b_{2}$ to $b$ . $b = \frac{A}{h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:

$A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$h$ - Height of the trapezoid, measured in centimeters.

$b_{1}$ , $b_{2}$ - Lengths fo the bases, measured in centimeters.

$A$ - Area of the trapezoid, measured in square centimeters.

We proceed to clear the height of the trapezoid:

1) $A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Given.

2) $A = 2^{-1}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Definition of division.

3) $2\cdot A\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot h\cdot [(b_{1}+b_{2})\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})^{-1}]$ Compatibility with multiplication/Commutative and associative properties.

4) $h = \frac{2\cdot A}{b_{1}+b_{2}}$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property/Definition of division/Result

If we know that $A = 91\,cm^{2}$ , $b_{1} = 16\,cm$ and $b_{2} = 12\,cm$ , then height of the trapezoid is:

$h = \frac{2\cdot (91\,cm^{2})}{16\,cm+12\,cm}$

$h = 6.5\,cm$

The height of the trapezoid is 6.5 centimeters.

B) We should follow this procedure to solve the formula for $b_{1}$ :

1) $A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Given.

2) $A = 2^{-1}\cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Definition of division.

3) $2\cdot A \cdot h^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot (h\cdot h^{-1})\cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Compatibility with multiplication/Commutative and associative properties.

4) $2\cdot A \cdot h^{-1} = b_{1}+b_{2}$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property

5) $\frac{2\cdot A}{h} +(-b_{2}) = [b_{2}+(-b_{2})] +b_{1}$ Definition of division/Compatibility with addition/Commutative and associative properties

6) $b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot A}{h}-b_{2}$ Existence of additive inverse/Definition of subtraction/Modulative property/Result.

We used an algebraic approach to to solve the formula for $b_{1}$ .

C) We can use the result found in B) to determine the length of the remaining base of the trapezoid: ( $A= 215\,cm^{2}$ , $h = 8.6\,cm$ and $b_{2} = 30\,cm$ )

$b_{1} = \frac{2\cdot (215\,cm^{2})}{8.6\,cm} - 30\,cm$

$b_{1} = 20\,cm$

The length of the other base of the trapezoid is 20 centimeters.

D) Yes, we can find their lengths as both have the same length and number of variable is reduced to one, from $b_{1}$ and $b_{2}$ to $b$ . Now we present the procedure to clear $b$ below:

1) $A = \frac{1}{2} \cdot h \cdot (b_{1}+b_{2})$ Given.

2) $b_{1} = b_{2}$ Given.

3) $A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot h \cdot (2\cdot b)$ 2) in 1)

4) $A = 2^{-1}\cdot h\cdot (2\cdot b)$ Definition of division.

5) $A\cdot h^{-1} = (2\cdot 2^{-1})\cdot (h\cdot h^{-1})\cdot b$ Commutative and associative properties/Compatibility with multiplication.

6) $b = A \cdot h^{-1}$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property.

7) $b = \frac{A}{h}$ Definition of division/Result.

Which expression is equivalent to -7/9

atroni [7]

The expression from the given options that is equivalent fraction -7/9 is -14/18.

<h3>What is a fraction?</h3>

Fraction can be described as the expression of numbers, which usually have the numerator and the denominator, and this do contains two integers arranged on each other.

From the given fraction,-7/9 if start o test the options by reducing them int their simplest form we will deduced that option B is correct because if we divide 14 by the factor of 2, and 18 by the factor of 2, then it will give us -7/9 which is a negative value of fraction in the question.

Therefore, option B is correct.
