A counter top is in the shape of a trapezoid. The lengths of the bases are 70 1/2 and 65 1/2 inches long. The area of the counter top is 1,244 square inches. Write and solve an equation to find the height

Answers

Answer:

height = (area x 2) / sum of bases

18.29 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

height = area x 2 / sum of bases

sum of lengths = 70 1/2 = 65 1/2 = 136

Can someone give me the answer this question

Answers

Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the 2 given angles are same side interior angles, and therefore are supplementary (add up to 180°). The equation to solve for "x" would be written as:

(Angle 1) + (Angle 2) = 180°

(8x - 10) + (62) = 180°

8x + 52 = 180

8x = 180 - 52

8x = 128

x = 16

Therefore, x = 16

Answer Choice 1. Incorrect. Minerals can be found all over the world in the crust of the earth, but generally in such small quantities that they are not worth extracting.

Answer Choice 2. Correct. Fossil fuels can be found more in areas that had a lot of plant growth because, after a long time, the heat and pressure changed the plants into fossil fuels.

Answer Choice 3. Incorrect. Minerals, fresh water, and biosphere resources are distributed unevenly around the planet as a result of past geologic processes.

Answer Choice 4. Incorrect. It depends more on the geological processes to produce large mineral deposits compared to the location of where they are.

25 in

Answers

500 area
90 perimeter
"Size" is ambiguous, so I'm giving you two answers.

When you hear that a TV is 40 inches, the length from one corner to the opposite corner diagonally is 40 inches. To solve, we use formula for hypotenuse, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

20^2 + 25^2 = 32.02^2.

If that is what they mean by size, your answer is 32.02. However, size could refer to the area of the screen, which is calculated by length * width.

20 * 25 = 500

The answer in this case is 500.

Answer: Choice B

vertex = (3, -4)y intercept = (0, 5)x intercepts = (1, 0) and (5, 0)axis of symmetry:  x = 3

========================================================

Explanation:

The vertex is the lowest point for parabolas that open upward like this. The lowest point is (3, -4). If the parabola is flipped upside down, then the vertex would be the highest point.

--------

The y intercept is where the graph crosses the y axis. For any function, it will have at most one y intercept (some don't have any at all but the most you can have is 1 y intercept). The graph crosses the vertical y axis at (0,5). We can say in short "the y intercept is 5". The y intercept always occurs when x = 0.

--------

On the flip side, the x intercept always occurs when y = 0. This is where the graph crosses or touches the x axis. We have two such locations of (1,0) and (5,0). In short, we could say "the x intercepts are 1 and 5". The term "root" is another word we could use in place for "x intercept". Unlike the y intercept, we can have as many x intercepts as we want.

--------

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line through the parabola. It is the x coordinate of the vertex. So it's not a coincidence that the vertex is at (3,-4) and the axis of symmetry is x = 3, with those '3's repeated twice.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, this is in army time. (Just so you know!) Also, it goes to 24 hours.

What you would do is add 45 mins to get to a single hour: so 20:15 + 45 = 21:00, then add 3 to get to 24:00 or 12:00 am, then add 6 more hours to get to 6:00 hours. So the final answer is 9 hours and 45 mins

Three candidates were running for class president. Of the 250 students eligible to vote, 75 voted for Carlos and 32% of the students voted for LaToya. Of thsoe who didn't vote for Carlos or LaToya, 60% voted for Stephanie and the rest of the students chose not to vote.

Part 1: What percent of the eligible students voted for Carlos?

Part 2: How many votes did LaToya receive?

Part 3: How many votes did Stepanie recieve?

Part 4: Who won the election?

Answers

Answer:

Part 1) 30%

Part 2) 80 students

Part 3) 57 votes

Part 4) LaToya

Step-by-step explanation:

75 divided by 250 = 0.30 = 30%

32% = 0.32 and then 0.32 times 250 = 80 students

250 - 75 - 80 = 95 students that didn't vote for Carlos or LaToya. Then 0.60 times 95 = 57

LaToya had 80 votes, the most votes.
