A counter top is in the shape of a trapezoid. The lengths of the bases are 70 1/2 and 65 1/2 inches long. The area of the counter top is 1,244 square inches. Write and solve an equation to find the height

height = (area x 2) / sum of bases

18.29 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

height = area x 2 / sum of bases

sum of lengths = 70 1/2 = 65 1/2 = 136

(1244 X 2) / 136 = 18.29

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
