Answer:

Large square

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a square, how much it covers a plane is given by its area. Area of a square depends on the length of the square's side. The bigger the length, the bigger the area. A small square has a smaller length of its side than a medium square, and a medium square has a smaller length of its side than a large square. So, a smaller square has a smaller area than a medium square, and a medium square has a smaller area than a large square. In conclusion, a large square covers more area than a medium and a smaller square.

Here are the vertices of rectangle FROG: (-2,5),(-2,1),(6,5),(6,1). Find the perimeter of this rectangle. If you get stuck, try

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Part 1) The perimeter of rectangle is equal to 24 units

Part 2) The area of rectangle is equal to 32 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the perimeter of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

$P=2(L+W)$

where

L is the length of rectangle

W is the width of rectangle

we have

$F(-2,5),R(-2,1),O(6,1),G(6,5)$

Plot the figure to better understand the problem

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

Remember that in a rectangle opposite sides are congruent and the measure of each interior angle is equal to 90 degrees

$FG=RO=L\\RF=OG=W$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance FG

$F(-2,5),G(6,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-5)^{2}+(6+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(8)^{2}}$

$FG=8\ units$

step 2

Find the distance RF

$R(-2,1),F(-2,5)$

substitute the values

$d=\sqrt{(5-1)^{2}+(-2+2)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(4)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$RF=4\ units$

step 3

Find the perimeter

$P=2(L+W)$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$P=2(8+4)=24\ units$

Part 2) Find the area of rectangle FROG

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$FG=RO=L=8\ units\\RF=OG=W=4\ units$

substitute

$A=(8)(4)=32\ units^2$

Write the word sentence as an inequality -5/9 is no less than 5 times a number k. An inequality is

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

-5/9 ≥ 5k

Step-by-step explanation:

no less than means greater than or equal to because -5/9 is the lowest it can go (nothing less than), meaning that number or higher. 5 times a number k is just 5 times k, which is 5k to the inequality is

-5/9 ≥ 5k
