Example 5 24. GEOMETRY Write and solve an equation to
find the value of x so that the figures have
the same area. The area of a trapezoid is

1/2*6(12+x)=12*x

1/2*(72+6)=12x

36+3x=12x

36=9x

4=x

Step-by-step explanation:

Check that x=4

1/2*6(4+12)=12*4

1/2*(24+72)=48

1/2(96)=48

48=48

So x=4 is the correct answer

42%

step-by-step explanation:

we know,

total people = 60

total males = 25

percentage of males

= 25/60 × 100

= 25/6 × 10

= 25/3 × 5

= 125 / 3

= 41.

rounding of = 42%
