ABCD is a trapezoid. What is the area of trapezoid? - 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let h represent the height of the trapezoid, the perpendicular distance between AB and DC. Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (1/2)(AB + DC)·h
We are given a relationship between AB and DC, so we can write
  Area = (1/2)(AB + AB/4)·h = (5/8)AB·h

The given dimensions let us determine the area of ∆BCE to be
  Area ∆BCE = (1/2)(5 cm)(12 cm) = 30 cm²

The total area of the trapezoid is also the sum of the areas ...
  Area = Area ∆BCE + Area ∆ABE + Area ∆DCE
Since AE = 1/3(AD), the perpendicular distance from E to AB will be h/3. The areas of the two smaller triangles can be computed as
  Area ∆ABE = (1/2)(AB)·h/3 = (1/6)AB·h
  Area ∆DCE = (1/2)(DC)·(2/3)h = (1/2)(AB/4)·(2/3)h = (1/12)AB·h

Putting all of the above into the equation for the total area of the trapezoid, we have
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = 30 cm² + (1/6)AB·h + (1/12)AB·h
  (5/8 -1/6 -1/12)AB·h = 30 cm²
  AB·h = (30 cm²)/(3/8) = 80 cm²

Then the area of the trapezoid is
  Area = (5/8)AB·h = (5/8)·80 cm² = 50 cm²

Colin’s piano lesson is 45 minutes, or 3/4 of an hour, long. If he practices 6 different songs and spends an equal amount of time on each song, what fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song?

Answers

Answer:

15/2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Class duration= 45 minutes

For 6 songs = 45 minutes

For 1 song = 45/6 = 15/2 minutes

Given:

Colin’s piano lesson is 45 minutes, or Three-fourths of an hour, long. If he practices 6 different songs and spends an equal amount of time on each song, what fraction of an hour does he spend practicing each song ?

Solution:

we have,

→ Colin’s piano lesson is = 45 minutes .

and,

→ he practices total different songs = 6

also, given that, he spends an equal amount of time on each song .

So,

→ Time he spend on each song = Total time of lesson / Total number of songs he practice = 45/6 = (15/2) Minutes.

now, we know that,

→ 60 minutes = 1 hour .

→ 1 minute = (1/60) hour .

then,

(15/2) minutes = (1/60) * (15/2) = (1/8) hours.

A hydraulic lift is to be used to lift a 2000-kg weight by putting a weight of 25 kg on a piston with a diameter of 10 cm. Determine the diameter of the piston on which the weight is to be placed.

Answers

Answer:

88 centimeters is the diameter of the cilinder

Step-by-step explanation:

The pressure on both ends of the lift must be the same. Assuming the piston is cilindrical, its area will be A=π*r² where r is half the diameter

Since pressure P=F/A And P1=P2

F1=2000kg.g

A1=π*r²

F2=25kg.g

A2=π*0.05²

2000/(π*r²)=25/(π*0.05²)

and we solve for A1

r²=2000*0.05²/25

r=\sqrt{(2000*0.05^2)/(25)}

r=√(5)20*0.05/5=0.44m or 44cm

This is the radius, meaning that the diameter will be twice this number

Answer:

Diameter=28,4849

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the formula for pistons is oftena  simple rule of three, the input and output force is equal to the division of the force by the area of the application of the force:

(25)/(78,5)= (2000)/(x)\n x=(2000*25)/(78,5) \nx=636,94cm^2

Now that is the area of the circle, we just solve the formula of the circle to calculate the radius:

a=\pi r^2\nr=\sqrt{(636,94)/(3,14) } \nr=14,24 cm

Now remember that the radius is half the diameter so we just have to multiply the radius by 2:

14,24*2=28,4849

So the diameter has to be 28,4849

Which of the following functions has the greatest y-intercept?f(x)
X: -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2
Y: 15, -8, -1, 3, 6, 10

g(x) = –4 sin(5x) + 3

Options:
A. f(x)
B. g(x)
C. f(x) and g(x) have the same y-intercept
D. Not enough information

Answers

Answer:

C. f(x) and g(x) have the same y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-intercept, we need to plug in x = 0

f(x) is given in table values.

When x = 0, y = 3 from the table values.

Therefore, y-intercept of f(x) = 3

g(x) = -4 sin(5x) + 3

Plug in x = 0

y = -4 sin(5.0) + 3

y = -4 sin 0 + 3         [sin 0 = 0]

y = 0 + 3

y = 3

Therefore, y-intercept of g(x) = 3

Answer: C. f(x) and g(x) have the same y-intercept

Hope this will helpful.
