Notice that both A and B are multiplied by (1/2).

Thus, the given expression can be re-written as [(1/2)(A+B)]^2.

Square the (1/2) and the (A+B) separately, and then multiply together the resulting squares:

(1/4)(A^2 + 2AB + B^2)

in a proportional relationship the ratio y/x is constant. Show that this ratio is not constant for the equation y=a-14

Colt1911 [192]

To show that the ratio $\frac{y}{x}$ is not constant for the function $y=a-14$ we only need to evaluate this function at 2 points and then show that the ratio is not the same for those two points. Note that here $a$ represents $x$ .

To find the counter examples here, I will use the values $a=20$ and $a=28$ . For $a = 20$ , the equation tells us that the output is

$y=20-14=6$ . For this value of $a$ the point is point is $(20,6)$ . The ratio $\frac{y}{x} =\frac{6}{20}$ . For the $a=28$ , $y=28-14=14$ . For this value of $a$ the point is $(28,14)$ . The ratio $\frac{y}{x} =\frac{14}{28} =\frac{1}{2}$ . Clearly this ratio is not constant for all ordered pairs.

Avery and Caden have saved $27,000 towards a down payment on a house. They want to keep some of the money in a bank account that

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

They should put $6750 in the bank account and $20,250 in the stock fund.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information that Avery and Caden have saved $27000.

Let x is the money deposit in the bank and y is the money deposit in stock fund.

Therefore,

x + y = 27000

x = 27000 - y

The bank account will pay 2.4% annual interest.

$\frac{2.4}{100}x+x=1.024x$

Stock fund pays 7.2% annual interest.

$\frac{7.2}{100}y+y=1.072y$

Therefore,

1.024 x + 1.072 y = 1.06 × 27000

Substitute the x = 27000 - y in above equation.

1.024 (27000 − y) + 1.072 y = 1.06 × 27000

27648 − 1.024 y + 1.072 y = 28620

0.048 y = 28620-27648

0.048 y = 972

y = 20250

Now, substitute the y = 20250 in x = 27000 - y.

x = 27000 − 20250

x = 6750

Hence, they should put $6750 in the bank account and $20,250 in the stock fund.

a dollhuse has a bed with diemesions 1/12 size of a queen size bed has an area of 4,800 square inches, and a length of 80 inches

aliina [53]

Divid to get the other side :) so if the doll house is 1/12 of the queen size bed you divid each side by 12 see. 4800/80=60. 80/12=6.6667.... so 60/12=5. so then 5x6 1/3. hope this helps you ... goood luck! :)

Write the standard form of the line that contains a slope of -1/2 and y-intercept of 1. Include your work in your final answer.

NemiM [27]

The slope intercept form would be y= -1/2x + 1 and to get it into standard form all you have to do is move the -1/2 x to the other side, making it 1/2x + y = 1
