A lot is in the shape of a trapezoid. The sum of the bases is 280 feet. If the area of the lot is 8,400 square feet, what is the distance across the lot, i.e., the altitude of the figure? The altitude of the trapezoid is feet.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The altitude of the trapezoid is 60 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Trapezoid

Sum of the bases: B+b=280 feet

Area of the trapezoid: A=8,400 feet^2

Altitude of the trapezoid: h=?

The formula to calculate the area of a Trapezoid is:

A = (1/2) (B+b) h

Replacing the given values:

8,400 feet^2 = (1/2) (280 feet) h

(1/2) (280 feet) = (140 feet)

8,400 feet^2 = (140 feet) h

Solving for h: Dividing both sides of the equation by 140 feet:

8,400 feet^2 / (140 feet) = (140 feet) h / (140 feet)

60 feet = h

h = 60 feet

Answer: The altitude of the trapezoid is 60 feet.

Answers

Answer: p(x) = 8.7x - 1940

              p(500) = $2410

              p(1000) = $6760

              p(5000) = $41,560

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = r(x) - c(x)

      = 9.5x - (0.8x + 1940)

      = 9.5x - 0.8x - 1940

      = 8.7x - 1940

**********************************************************************

p(500) = 8.7(500) - 1940

           = 4350 - 1940

           = 2410

p(1000) = 8.7(1000) - 1940

             = 8700 - 1940

             = 6760

p(5000) = 8.7(5000) - 1940

              = 43,500 - 1940

              = 41,560

***************************************************************************

p(500) =    r(500)    -    c(500)

           = 9.5(500)  -  [0.8(500) + 1940]

           =    4750     - (400 + 1940)

           =     4750    -      2340

           =              2410

p(1000) =   r(1000)    -    c(1000)

            = 9.5(1000)  -  [0.8(1000) + 1940]

            =     9500     - (800 + 1940)

            =     9500     -      2740

            =              6760

p(5000) =    r(5000)    -    c(5000)

           = 9.5(5000)  -  [0.8(5000) + 1940]

           =    47500     - (4000 + 1940)

           =    47500     -      5940

           =              41,560

Answers

Answer:

18 number of glasses of lemonade can she pour

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate defined as rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 8 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

As per the statement: Rita has 3/4 gallon of lemonade she pours 1/24 gallon of lemonade into each glass.

Number of lemonade Rita has  = 3/4 gallon

[tex]\text{Unit rate per glass} = \frac{1}{24} \text{gallons}[/tex]

By definition of unit rate;

[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{\text{Number of lemonade}}{\text{Unit rate per glass}}[/tex]

Substitute the given values we get;

[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{24}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of glasses} = \frac{3}{4} \times 24 = 3 \times 6 = 18[/tex]

Therefore, number of glasses of lemonade can she pour is, 18

Step-by-step explanation:

137 + 4(n-1)

Okay, let's test this starting with week 1:

137 + 4(1-1)

137 + 4*0

137, which is correct because she starts with 137.

Week 2:

137 + 4 (2-1)

137 + 4 * 1

137 + 4

141

Alright, let's see if it is correct if we do week 5:

137 + 4 (5-1)

137 + 4(4)

137 + 16

153

To know that 153 is right we could do 137 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4, which equals 153.

How to find the measure of a triangle?

Answers

is it 1/2×b×h
to find the area
or
base×height

Hi there! :)

Answer:

The answer is D. 83°


Step-by-step explanation:

You should know that the interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180°.

So, what you will need to do, is add all 3 angles together and create an equation (equal to 180). Then you need to solve this equation by isolating "x":

(8x + 12) + (55 - 3x) + (10x + 23) = 180

Get rid of all the parentheses

8x + 12 + 55 - 3x + 10x + 23 = 180

Add all similar terms together

8x - 3x + 10x = 15x

12 + 55 + 23 = 90

15x + 90 = 180

Subtract "90" from each side of the equation → 180 - 90 = 90

15x = 90

Divide each side of the equation by "15" → 90 ÷ 15 = 6

x = 6


Since you now know that the value of "x" is 6, you can now find the measure of the angle at George's position by replacing the "x" by 6:

10x + 23 = Measure of the angle at George's position

10(6) + 23

Multiply 10 by 6 → 10 × 6 = 60

60 + 23

Add 60 and 23 together → 60 + 23 = 83

83 = Measure of the angle at George's position


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Which function is the best inverse of f(x)=x2-9

Answers

Answer:

The inverse is sqrt(x+9)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x^2-9

To find the inverse of the function, we interchange x and y and solve for y

y = x^2 -9

x = y^2 -9

Add 9 to each side

x+9 = y^2 -9+9

x+9 = y^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x+9) = sqrt(y^2)

sqrt(x+9) = y

f^-1 (x) = sqrt(x+9)

We can check this by substituting x=3 into both equations and seeing if we get y=0

y = -x+3

y = -3+3

y =0


y = x-3

y = 3-3

y=0

In both cases, we got y=0.  

Therefore (3,0) is a solution to both equations and since it solves both equations, it solves the system.

−4/1​a−4= 4/7​a−3 solve for a

Answers

Answer:

a = (-7)/32  or a= 0.21875

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for a:

-4 a - 4 = (4 a)/7 - 3

Put each term in (4 a)/7 - 3 over the common denominator 7: (4 a)/7 - 3 = (4 a)/7 - 21/7:

-4 a - 4 = (4 a)/7 - 21/7

(4 a)/7 - 21/7 = (4 a - 21)/7:

-4 a - 4 = (4 a - 21)/7

Multiply both sides by 7:

7 (-4 a - 4) = (7 (4 a - 21))/7

(7 (4 a - 21))/7 = 7/7×(4 a - 21) = 4 a - 21:

7 (-4 a - 4) = 4 a - 21

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

-28 a - 28 = 4 a - 21

Subtract 4 a from both sides:

(-28 a - 4 a) - 28 = (4 a - 4 a) - 21

-28 a - 4 a = -32 a:

-32 a - 28 = (4 a - 4 a) - 21

4 a - 4 a = 0:

-32 a - 28 = -21

Add 28 to both sides:

(28 - 28) - 32 a = 28 - 21

28 - 28 = 0:

-32 a = 28 - 21

28 - 21 = 7:

-32 a = 7

Divide both sides of -32 a = 7 by -32:

(-32 a)/(-32) = 7/(-32)

(-32)/(-32) = 1:

a = 7/(-32)

Multiply numerator and denominator of 7/(-32) by -1:

Answer:  a = (-7)/32

The solution to the equation is [tex]\(a = -\frac{25}{32}\)[/tex].

To solve the equation [tex]\(\frac{-4}{1}a - 4 = \frac{4}{7}a - 3\) for \(a\)[/tex], follow these steps:

1. Simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by their respective denominators to eliminate the fractions:

[tex]\[ 7(-4a - 4) = 1(4a - 3) \][/tex]

2. Distribute the numbers outside the parentheses:

[tex]\[ -28a - 28 = 4a - 3 \][/tex]

3. Move all terms containing a to one side of the equation and constants to the other side:

[tex]\[ -28a - 4a = -3 + 28 \][/tex]

4. Combine like terms:

[tex]\[ -32a = 25 \][/tex]

5. Solve for a by dividing both sides by -32:

[tex]\[ a = \frac{25}{-32} \][/tex]

Therefore, the solution to the equation is [tex]\(a = -\frac{25}{32}\)[/tex].
