Hello!
To find the area of a trapezoid you use the equation
A is area
h is height
a and b are the bases
Put in the values we know
Add
Divide
Multiply
A = 120
The answer is 120cm squared
Hope this helps!
if it is solution point (4, –2) must satisfy both equations
(1) –3x – 2y = –8-->-3*4-2*(-2)=-8
-12+4=-8 then-->-8=-8 ok
(2) y = 2x – 5
-2=2*4-5=3---------->-2 is not 3
the point (4, –2) is not solution of the system of equations
<h3>Solution :</h3>
By cross multiply, we get
Therefore, answer is
