Quadrilateral ABCD ABCD is similar to quadrilateral EFGH EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD ABCD

are 20 feet, 18 feet, and 14 feet long. If the two shortest sides of quadrilateral EFGH EFGH are 6 feet long and 5 feet long, how long is the 4th side on quadrilateral ABCD A:13 ft B:6.4ft C:9.2ft D:11.7

Sketch the two quadrilaterals and label them as shown in the figure below.

Let x =  length of the 4th side of ABCD.

Because ABCD ~ EFGH, therefore
x/5 = 14/6

That is,
x = (5/6)*14 = 11.67 ft

Answer: D. 11.7 ft

A player shoots a basketball from a height of 6 feet. The equation, h = -16t^2 + 25t + 6, gives the height, h , of the basketbal
noname [10]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 7.5 \ feet}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given this function for the height (h) after t seconds:

h=-16t^2+25t+6

Seconds is t and we want to find the height after 1.5 seconds. Plug 1.5 in for t.

h= -16(1.5)^2+25(1.5)+6

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Solve the exponent first.

  • (1.5)²= 1.5*1.5=2.25

h= -16(2.25)+25(1.5)+6

Multiply.

h= -36+25(1.5)+6

h= -36+37.5+6

Add.

h=1.5+6=7.5

This is already rounded to the nearest tenth, so it is the answer.

After 1.5 seconds, the basketball is at a height of 7.5 feet.

Identify the constant of proportionality for each direct variation below.
andriy [413]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of 2 quantities in direct proportion is

y = kx ← k is the constant of proportionality

1

y = - 4x ← in standard form

with k = - 4

2

\frac{y}{x} = 2 ( multiply both sides by x )

y = 2x ← in standard form

with k = 2

3

\frac{x}{y} = 3 ( multiply both sides by y )

x = 3y ( divide both sides by 3 )

\frac{1}{3} x = y ← in standard form

with k = \frac{1}{3}
