Answer:

L = 62.5cm; B = 30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2 (L+W): L=25cm; W=12cm

=2 (25+12)

=50+24

P = 74cm

For a congruent rectangle with P = 185cm

A: 74 = 2 (25 + 12)

B: 185 = 2( ? + ?)

Since A/B are congruent;

185/75 = 2.5

B = 2 (2.5* (25 + 12)

= 2 ( 62.5 + 30)

= 125 + 60

= 185

Hence, B: L = 62.5cm; B = 30cm

185cm = 2 (62.5 + 30)

How do you find the area of a regular polygon?
weqwewe [10]
Each of the triangles are equal in base length, height, and area. Remember the formula for the area of a triangle. The area of any triangle is 1/2 times the length of the base (which, in the polygon, is the length of a side) multiplied by the height (which is the same as the apothem in regular polygon)

Jack plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of his city and the number of ice cream cones he s
timurjin [86]

Answer:

(a) The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

(b)

y = 2x + 5 --- equation

y = 5 --- y intercept

m = 2 --- slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Solving (a): The relationship between the variables

From the attached graph, the dots on the graph increases towards up-right direction. This implies that there is a positive correlation between the variables.

In other words;

The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

Solving (b): The line of best fit

First, we draw a line through the points (the line should have almost equal points on both sides; see attachment 2).

From (2), we select any 2 points on the line:

(x_1,y_1) = (15,35)

(x_2,y_2) = (0,5)

The slope (m) is:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{5-35}{0-15}

m = \frac{-30}{-15}

m = 2

So, the line of best fit is:

y = m(x - x_1) + y_1

Substitute known values:

y = 2(x - 0) + 5

y = 2(x) + 5

y = 2x + 5

The y-intercept is when x=0

So, we have:

y = 2*0 + 5

y = 0 + 5

y = 5

Murrr4er [49]
1/9 - 5/6

Convert both of them into denominators of 18.

2/18 - 15/18

Subtract the numerators and keep the denominator:

-13/18
