Answer: 12 inches
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, since we're asked to find the length of the median, let's use our formula for the area of a trapezoid that involves the median which is shown below.
Area = median · height
We know that the area is 144 and the height is 9 so we can set up the equation 144 = M · 12. Now to solve for <em>m</em>, we divide both sides of the equation by 12 and we find that 12 = M.
So the length of the median of the trapezoid is 12 inches.
The error rate has decreased after changing the painting process.

Abdulla knows that 20 percent of the parts have an error in their painting. After suggesting changes in painting process, he wants to know whether the error rate has changed.
Number of parts in the random sample=400400400
Number of parts that had an error=606060
We have to determine what percentage of 400400400 is 606060

After changing the painting process 0.15% of parts have error.
The previous percentage was 20.Hence the error rate has clearly changed.

Hi there Mary Dominguez, So what a vertical line test down is to find out if a particular graph is a function or not. What you do is take a vertical strait line and move it right to left or left to right, depending on your preference, along the X axis. The reason this works is a function can not have an x that has 2 different y values. If we use the vertical line test on a graph with say a graph that has (2,3) and (2,4) we can use the vertical line test and see that the line hits 2 points at once which means its not a function :)
