James was putting the table cloth back on the table after dinner. The table is 25 inches long and 10 inches wide. If the table cloth hangs 5 inches off each side, what is the area of the table cloth?

3000

Step-by-step explanation:

 700 square inches

Explanation:

The dimension 25 bumps up to 25+5+5 = 35 since we add two copies of 5 onto it. This is done to account for the portions that hang off the edge.

Similarly, the 10 inch dimension bumps up to 10+5+5 = 20 inches.

The table cloth is 35 inches by 20 inches to give an area of 35*20 = 700 square inches.

Side note: 700 square inches is approximately equal to 4.861 square feet (divide by 144 to convert from square inches to square feet).

answer with step-by-step explanation:

a. ∠j is supplementary to ∠k - true:

(opposite angles of a trapezoid are supplementary which means that they add up to 180 degrees)

b. kl is parallel to jm - true:

(opposite sides are parallel to each other in a trapezoid)

c. jk is perpendicular to kl - false:

(clearly, jk does not make a right angle with kl)

d. jk is parallel to lm - false:

(jk and lm are two lines opposite in direction to each other so they cannot be parallel)

e. ∠j is congruent to ∠m - true:

(the angles on each side of the base are congruent)

f. ∠j is congruent to ∠k - false:

(the angles on the same side but opposite side of the base are not congruent)

2^y = ln 5, or   y(ln 2) = ln 5.   solving for y,   y = (ln 5) / (ln 2).   y=5
