POSSIBLE POINTS: 5 Taina found the area of a table in the shape of a trapezoid. The height of the trapezoid is 10 ft, base one is 6 ft and base two is 5 ft. Taina says the area of the figure
is 110 square foot inches. What mistake did Taina make? What is the actual answer?

9514 1404 393

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

  A = (1/2)(6 ft +5 ft)(10 ft) = 55 ft²

The numerical value of the answer would be 110 if we "forgot" to multiply by 1/2.

The area units would be "square foot inches" if inch dimensions crept into the problem somewhere.

It looks like Taina made two mistakes:

fist on the left goes with the third on the right. second on the left goes with the fourth on the right. third on the left goes with the second on the right. the fourth on the left goes with first on the right

median is the value separating the higher half of a data sample, a population or probablity distribution from the lower half.

step-by-step explanation:

say you have 3,8,7,3,1,9,8 order them from lowest to highest

if orderd it would be 1,3,3,7,8,8,9 now you take away from the lowest and the highest until you end up in the middle.

so you would remove the 1 and 9 leaving you with 5 digits remaining

when you've reached the middle that would be your answer so in this case the answer is 7

if there were two numbers left say 7 and 5 you'd and them together so 12 then divide by 2 witch would equal 6 so the answer would be 6

good luck on that project hoped i you at all
