Quadrilateral JKLM is graphed with vertices at J(-2,2), K(-1,-5), L(4,0), and M(3,7).

AveGali [126]

Answer:

Question (a)

Midpoint of a line segment:

$M=\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)$

Given:

J = (-2, 2)
L = (4, 0)

$\implies \textsf{midpoint of }JL=\left(\dfrac{-2+4}{2},\dfrac{2+0}{2}\right)=(1,1)$

Given:

M = (3, 7)
K = (-1, -5)

$\implies \textsf{midpoint of }MK=\left(\dfrac{3-1}{2},\dfrac{7-5}{2}\right)=(1, 1)$

Question (b)

Find slopes (gradients) of JL and MK then compare. If the product of the slopes of JL and MK equal -1, then JL and MK are perpendicular.

$\textsf{slope }m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Given:

J = (-2, 2)
L = (4, 0)

$\implies \textsf{slope of }JL=\dfrac{0-2}{4+2}=-\dfrac13$

Given:

M = (3, 7)
K = (-1, -5)

$\implies \textsf{slope of }MK=\dfrac{-5-7}{-1-3}=3$

$\textsf{slope of }JL \times \textsf{slope of }MK=-\dfrac13 \times3=-1$

Hence segments JL and MK are perpendicular

You need to haul a load of patio bricks to a job site. Each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces. Truck can carry a 3/4 - ton load. H

Olin [163]

Answer:

339 bricks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the weight of each brick and what the truck can support. Therefore what we must do is pass all to the same unit of measurement to calculate the quantity of bricks.

In this case we will pass everything to pounds.

We have that a 1 pound is 16 ounces, therefore 14 would be:

14 ounces * 1 pound / 16 ounces = 0.875 pounds

In addition we have that 1 ton is 2204.62 pounds, therefore 3/4 would be:

3/4 ton * 2204.62 pounds / 1 ton = 1653.467 pounds

Therefore, in total the brick weighs 4,875 pounds (4 + 0.875) and the truck can support 1653,467 pounds, the number of bricks would be:

1653.467 / 4.875 = 339.17

In other words, it can support about 339 bricks.

Ann's first option is a plot of land adjacent to a current park.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Given:

The equation for the area of the first option is:

$x^2+200x=166400$

Where x is the side length of the current square park.

To find:

The side length of the current square park.

Solution:

We have,

$x^2+200x=166400$

It can be written as:

$x^2+200x-166400=0$

Splitting the middle term, we get

$x^2+520x-320x-166400=0$

$x(x+520)-320(x+520)=0$

$(x-320)(x+520)=0$

$x=320,-520$

We know that the side length of a park cannot be negative. So, the only possible value of x is 320.

Therefore, the most direct method to solve the given equation is splitting the middle term and the side length of the current square park is 320 meters.
