Jorge plans to paint a bedroom wall that is shaped like a trapezoid. The bottom edge of the wall is 22.5 feet long, and the top edge of the wall is 9.5 feet long. If the wall is 8 feet tall, what is the area of the wall? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary.

Add the top and bottom. Divide by 2. Multiply by the height.
