The area of a trapezoid is 144 square inches. if the height is 12 inches, find the length of the median.

Answers

Answer 1

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 m, 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.

Answer 2

Given an area of 144 square inches and a height of 12 inches, the median is found to be 24 inches.

To find the length of the median of a trapezoid, we can use the formula for the area of a trapezoid, which is:

Area = 0.5 × (Base1 + Base2) × Height

We are given that the area is 144 square inches and the height is 12 inches. The formula can be rearranged to solve for the average of the two bases or the median (M):

144 = 0.5 × M × 12

Simplifying this equation, we get:

M = (144 × 2) / 12

M = 288 / 12

M = 24 inches

Thus, the length of the median is 24 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The grid shows a section of the beach in Coast City where each square has sides that are 100 yards long.

On a coordinate plane, the beach front is about 800 yards long. From the south pier to the north pier along harbor drive and park street, the distance is 1200 yards long.

Lisa walked from the South Pier to the North Pier along the beachfront. Deanna walked from the South Pier to the North Pier along Harbor Drive and Park Street. Which statement best describes the distances the two women walked?

a. Lisa walked about 400 yards farther than Deanna.

b. Lisa walked the same distance as Deanna.

c. Lisa walked about 400 yards less than Deanna.

Mitchell and Luke record the number of deliveries they each make for their family's restaurant. The results are shown in the box plots below.

Select the true statement.

The interquartile range of Mitchell's data is greater than the interquartile range of Luke's data.


Mitchell's data and Luke's data have the same interquartile range.

The median number of deliveries made by Mitchell each week is greater than the median number of deliveries made by Luke each week.

The median number of deliveries made by Mitchell each week is equal to the median number of deliveries made by Luke each week.

Answers

The correct answer is the first:
 The interquartile range of Mitchell's data is greater than the interquartile range of Luke's data.
 Since the interquartile range (RIC) is equal to:

 RIC = Q3-Q1

 Of the gracifa can be observed quer for the case of Mitchell:
 RIC = 34-25 = 9

 While for Luke's case:
 RIC = 36-28 = 8.

 Therefore Mitchell's interquartile range (RIC) is greater than Luke's.

Answer:

A. The interquartile range of Mitchell's data is greater than the interquartile range of Luke's data.

C) (x - 5)2 + (y + 7)2 = 12
D) (x + 5)2 + (y - 7)2 = 12

Answers

Answer:
Option B, (x + 5)² + (y - 7)² = 36

Explanation:

The equation for a circle is (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r² where r represents the radius of the circle and the center is ordered pair (h, k).

We can then plug the given information into the formula and simplify where possible.

Center at (-5, 7), radius = 6:
[x - (-5)]² + (y - 7)² = (6)²

(x + 5) + (y - 7)² = 36, which matches option B.

Initial total number of marbles: 8 + 5 + 2 = 15
Initial number of blue marbles: 8

First pick:
p(blue marble) = 8/15

Since the marble from the first pick is returned to the bag, the bag still contains 8 blue marbles and a total of 15 marbles.

Second pick:
p(blue marble) = 8/15

Overall:
p(blue marble followed by blue marble) =

It will weigh 79 pounds on mars 

We have been given that the weight of an object on the mars varies directly as the weight of the object on earth.  

Let y be weight of an object on Mars and x be weight of an object on Earth.

We have been given that the weight of an object on Mars is 34 pounds and weight of the same object on Earth is 90 pounds.

Putting the given values in equation we get

[tex]\\ 34=k(90)\\ \\ k=\frac{34}{90}=\frac{17}{45}[/tex]

Therefore, our equation now becomes

[tex]\\ y= \frac{17}{45}x[/tex]

Now we have been given that the weight of an object on Earth is 135 pounds and we have to find the weight of the same object on Mars,

We have been given that [tex]\\ x=135[/tex]

Putting the given values in our equation we get

[tex]\\ y= \frac{17}{45}(135)=\frac{17\cdot 135}{45}=17\cdot 3 = 51[/tex]

Therefore weight of the object on Mars will be 51 pounds.

The length of a rectangle is 5 cm longer than its width. find the width given that the area is 36cm

Answers

Hi there! The answer is 4 cm.

Let the width of the rectangle be represented by X.
Now we can conclude we can express the length by X + 5.

The area of a rectangle can be found using the formula:
A = W × L = width × length.

Filling in the formula gives us the following:
[tex]x(x + 5) = [/tex]

Work out the parenthesis (for instance using rainbow technique).
[tex] {x}^{2} + 5x[/tex]

Now, when we've found our expression that represents the area, we can set up and solve an equation.
[tex] {x}^{2} + 5x = 36[/tex]

Subtract 36.
[tex] {x}^{2} + 5x - 36 = 0[/tex]

Factorise
[tex](x + 9)(x - 4) = 0[/tex]

Rule AB = 0, gives A = 0 or B = 0
[tex]x + 9 = 0 \\ x = - 9 \\ or \\ x - 4 = 0 \\ x = 4[/tex]

Since length can't be negative, the width of the rectangle, which was represented by x, is 4.
The answer is 4 cm.
