Graph quadrilateral ABCD and find the most precise name (square, rectangle,

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Kite

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph quadrilateral with points:

A(-1,-2)

B(5,1)

C(-3,1)

D(-1,4)

Thus, we graph the the given points and join the corners. The quadrilateral formed has the following features:

Measure of segment AB= Measure of segment BD = 6.708 units

Measure of segment AC= Measure of segment CD = 3.605 units

Thus, adjacent pair of sides of the quadrilateral are congruent.

Major diagonal BC cuts the minor diagonal AD at point E such that:

Measure of segment AE= Measure of segment ED = 3 units

m∠AEB = m∠DEB = 90°

Thus, major diagonal is a perpendicular bisector of the minor diagonal.

The above stated features fulfills the criterion of a kite.

Hence, the given quadrilateral ABCD is a kite.

If three quarters of a number decreased by twenty is equal to eighty two, what is that number?

Studentka2010 [4]

A number is :

$x$

_________________________________

Three quarters of it means :

$\frac{3}{4}x \\$

_________________________________

Decrease by 20 means :

$\frac{3}{4}x - 20 \\$

_________________________________

Equals to 82 means :

$\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\$

_________________________________

What is that number ?

x asked so we must solve the above equation for x.

Let's do it....

$\frac{3}{4}x - 20 = 82 \\$

Plus sides 20

$\frac{3}{4}x = 82 + 20 \\$

$\frac{3}{4}x = 102 \\$

Multiply sides by 4

$3x = 102 \times 4$

Divided sides by 3

$x = \frac{102 \times 4}{3} \\$

$x = \frac{102}{3} \times 4 \\$

Simplify

$x = 34 \times 4$

$x = 136$

So that number is 136 .

And we're done.

Thanks for watching buddy good luck.

Which measure of center best represents this set of data? Number of television sets in the home: 4, 4, 2, 4, 4, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4 *

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Mean

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Data: 4, 4, 2, 4, 4, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4$

Required

Best measure of center

The mean is considered the best measure of center when there are no outliers in the given data.

Outlier is when a particular data set is far away from other datasets.

For instance: 20 is an outlier in the following data sets: $4, 4, 2, 20, 4, 4, 1, 3, 4, 2, 4$

Also, the given data are not open-ended.

An open-ended data is as follows: $1, 2, 3, 4, 5\ or\ more$

Since we do not have any of the above conditions, then the mean is the best center to use.
