True or false the opposite sides of a kite are never parallel

1 answer:

6 0

Answer: True

If the opposite sides were parallel, then you would have a parallelogram (which isn't a kite). A parallelogram has opposite sides that are congruent.

A kite is a figure with adjacent sides that are congruent. A kite does not have opposite sides that are congruent.

Mario has a business selling muffins. Let x be the price of a muffin. Then, the profit P for Mario’s business is given by p(x)=-

Rufina [12.5K]

To make a positive profit p(x)>0 we need to make:
$-100 x^{2} +350x-150 \ \textgreater \ 0$

Now we solve this for x:
$-2 x^{2} +7x-3 \ \textgreater \ 0$

We have:
a = -2
b = 7
c = -3

We will use formula for quadratic equation:
$x_{1} = \frac{-b+ \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-b- \sqrt{ b^{2}-4ac } }{2a} \\ \\ x_{1} = \frac{-7+ \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7+5 }{-4} = \frac{-2 }{-4} = \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ x_{2} = \frac{-7- \sqrt{ 49-24 } }{-4} = \frac{-7-5 }{-4} = \frac{-12 }{-4} = 3$

We got two solutions. One is fraction other is whole number. We will not consider fraction because the amount of muffins sold must be whole number. So our solution is:
x>3

Py+7=6y+q solve for y

andreyandreev [35.5K]

We know that we are solving for y.

This is a step by step procedure to get the value of y.

First: Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero.

Second: Then set each factor equal to zero.

The application is:

Given: py+7=6y+q

-6y -7 -6y -7 = 0

(p-6)y = q-7

divide both sides by p-6
y=(q-7)/(p-6)

Answer is y = (q – 7) / (p – 6)

I need to write an even number between 7 and 16 draw a picture an them write a sentence to explain why it is an even number

serious [3.7K]

An even number is a number that is divisible by 2.
This means that dividing this number by 2 yields no remainder (the remainder is zero).

The even numbers between 7 and 16 are:
8 as 8/2 = 4 and remainder is zero
10 as 10/2 = 5 and remainder is zero
12 as 12/2 = 6 and remainder is zero
14 as 14/2 = 7 and remainder is zero
