Answer:

306 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Coordinates of the trapezoid:</u>

  • D(0, 0), U(5, 12), C(20, 12), K(36, 0)

<em>Area of trapezoid = 1/2(Base1 + Base2)*Height</em>

<u>Bases have length of:</u>

  • 36 - 0= 36 units and
  • 20 - 5 = 15 units

<u>Height is:</u>

  • 12 - 0 = 12 units

<u>Area:</u>

  • 1/2(36+15)*12 = 306 sq. units

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The slope of the line is \dfrac{1}{2} and a point on the line is (1, 4)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The general point slope of line passing through (x_1,y_1) and having slope as m.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The given equation of the straight line,

y-4=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-1)

Comparing this to the general equation we get the point as (1, 4) and slope as \dfrac{1}{2}

8_murik_8 [283]
We can solve this equation by using the Square Root Method.
First, take the square root of each side of the equation:
(x-8)^2 = 144 becomes x-8 = 12
Then add 8 to both sides.
x=20

The original lawn was d. 20 feet by 20 feet.

If e = 9 cm and f = 40 cm, what is the length of g?
rewona [7]

(9,40,41) is a Pythagorean Triple, farther down the list than teachers usually venture.

Answer: D. 41 cm

There's a subset of Pythagorean Triples where the long leg is one less than the hypotenuse,

a^2+b^2 = (b+1)^2

a^2 + b^2 = b^2 + 2b +1

a^2=2b+1

So we get one for every odd number, since the square of an odd number is odd and the square of an even number is even.

b = (a^2 - 1)/2

a=3, b=(3^2-1)/2=4, c=b+1=5

a=5, b=(5^2-1)/2 =12, c = 13

a=7, b=24, c=25

a=9, b=40, c=41

a=11, b=60, c=61

a=13, b=84, c=85

It's good to be able to recognize Pythagorean Triples when we see them.  

Otherwise we'd have to work the calculator:

√(9² + 40²) = √1681 = 41

Choose the table that represents g(x) = −2⋅f(x) when f(x) = x + 4.
grigory [225]

Answer: THIRD OPTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since  g(x) = -2f(x), then g(x) is:

g(x)=-2( x + 4)\\\\g(x)=-2x-8

In order to find which table represents g(x) = -2f(x) when f(x) = x + 4, you can follow these steps:

1. Substitute x=1 into the function g(x)=-2x-8:

 g(1)=-2(1)-8\\\\g(1)=-10

2. Substitute x=2 into the function g(x)=-2x-8:

 g(2)=-2(2)-8\\\\g(2)=-12

3. Substitute x=3 into the function g(x)=-2x-8:

 g(3)=-2(3)-8\\\\g(3)=-14

Notice that those ouput values (for x=1,\ x=2 and x=3) matches with the table provided in the third option. That table represents g(x) = -2f(x) when f(x) = x + 4:

Efectuati impartirea 12xy:3x
adelina 88 [10]

In this question , we have to simplify the given ratio, which is

12xy:3x

First we have to see which factor is common in numerator and denominator,

We can write 12 as 3 times 4, that is

3*4x*y :3x

So the common factor is 3x.

In the next step, we cancel out 3x

4y:1

And that's the required simplified form .
