43.5 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by

A = 1/2 ( b1+b2) h  where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases and h is the height

We need to change 1 1/4 ft to inches = 1.25 (12) = 15 inches

A = 1/2 ( 15+14) 3

A = 1/2(29)*3

me! what did you put for this question?

step-by-step explanation:

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
