Need help asap! what is the value of x given that figure MNOP is a trapezoid with median QR

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the possible value of x in the given trapezoid MNOP with median QR, recall that one of the properties of a trapezoid is that the median length = ½ of the sum of the length of the parallel bases

Thus, ½ of [x + (3x + 8)] = 20

Let's find x

½*[x + (3x + 8)] = 20

½*[x + 3x + 8)] = 20

½*[4x +8] = 20

Multiply both sides by 2

4x + 8 = 20*2

4x + 8 = 40

Subtract 8 from both sides

4x = 40 - 8

4x = 32

Divide both sides by 4

x = 32/4

x = 8

step-by-step explanation:

here's what happens:

1) the graph of f   = x^2 is shifted 2 units to the right.

2) the resulting graph is reflected in the x-axis, so that the parabola now opens down.

3) this final result is transformed up by 5 units.
