The two quadrilaterals are given similar .
In any similar figure sides are in proportion.The second largest side of quadrilateral ABCD is 16 ft .Let the second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH be x ft. These sides will be in proportion to each other .
The second shortest side of quadrilateral EFGH that is GF will be proportional to the third longest side of quadrilateral ABCD that is BC
We can form a proportion with the proportional sides:
To solve for x we cross multiply
12x=(16)(18)
12x=288
Dividing both sides by 12 we get
x=24.
The second longest side of quadrilateral EFGH is 24 ft.
Hey there!
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(-5)=-(-5)^2 - 7(-5) - 5
f(-5)= -25 +35 - 5
f(-5) = -25 +30
f(-5) = 5
The ordered pairs already plotted have x-coordinates: -3, -2, 1, and 2.
A function cannot have two ordered pairs with the same x-coordinate.
The answer cannot have -3, -2, 1, or 2 as the x-coordinate.
Answer: First choice (-1, 2)
Answer:
D: -5(-6x^2 + x + 2)
E: 5(2x + 1)(3x − 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The <em>first two answer choices have incorrect constants</em> (25 and 3 vs -10). A factor of 5 is removed from the remaining answer choices, so let's remove a factor of 5 and see what we get:
30x^2 -5x -10 = 5(6x^2 -x -2)
An additional x cannot be factored from the expression, so <em>choice C can be eliminated</em>.
Multiplying each of these factors by -1 will make the product correspond to answer choice D.
Factoring will make it correspond to answer choice E, best verified by finding the x-term of the product of the binomial factors:
E: 2x(-2) +1(3x) = -x, as required
F: 2x(2) -1(3x) = x, wrong sign
The equivalent expressions are those of choices D and E.
