A=31.5 $unit^{2}$

Answer from: thicklooney

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of bases of trapezoid are:

7 + 3 + 7 = 17 units & 3 units

Height h = 8 units

$area \: of \: trapezoid \\ = \frac{1}{2} (sum \: of \: length \: of \: bases) \\\times height \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times (17 + 3) \times 8 \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times 20 \times 8 \\ \\ = 10 \times 8 \\ \\ = 80 \: {units}^{2} \\$

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

30% of $420 is 0.30($420) = $126 and $420 + $126 = $546.

or, 130% of $420 is 1.3($420) = $546.

notice that this is not the $600 original list price with which we started.

why doesn't this work?

the method does not work because 30% of $420 is not the same amount as the 30% of $600. it may seem obvious when stated this way, but it is a very common error made on problems of this type. we cannot just use the same percent and get back to the original amount because we are taking that percent of a different value.

to work problems of this type correctly, it is generally best to write an equation for the situation and then solve.

example: since (100% – 30%)(original price) = (sale price)

70% of the (original price) is $420.

0.7x = 420

equation image indicator

x = 600

the original cost was $600.

we may also solve this problem using the two-step method. working the problem in two steps requires us to use more algebra skills. we have to know that x = 1x (identity property of multiplicationtext annotation indicator) and that 1x – 0.3x = 0.7x (subtracting like terms). then we solve the problem as follows:

(original price) – 30%(original price) = sale price

x – 0.3x = 420

0.7x = $420

equation image indicator

x = 600

the original cost was $600.

note that with both of the above methods we do obtain the correct original amount.

example: after a 5% pay raise, hermione is earning $22,680 per year. what was she earning before the pay raise?

105% of (original salary) = current salary

1.05x = 22,680

equation image indicator

x = 21,600

hermione earned $21,600 per year before the pay raise.

this is an example so maybe you will get how to at least do it!

Answer from: Quest

part 1 answer = 8

part 2 answer = 72

step-by-step explanation:

part 1 explanation = add all of the numbers, then divide by how many numbers you have. so, 200/25 = 8.

part 2 explanation = not gonna lie, this is hard to explain, so just google how to do it.
