No, because all sides are not congruent. The answer is B.

No. It is not a square. Clearly this quadrilateral does not match all of the critera needed to fit the image/idea of a square. Although all of the vertices are 90 degree angles and the polygon is indeed a quadrilateral, the sides of the figure are not all the same length. That image is not one of squarish preportions. Therfore, it is not a square.

P.S. I tried to add in mathmatic words. Im not that much of a knowitall. Hope they get u an A+!!!

How do i solve x^2+7x=3x

valina [46]

To solve, you must make one side of the equation equal to zero. We can do this by subtracting 3x on both sides of the equation.

x^2 + 7x = 3x
 - 3x -3x

x^2 + 4x = 0.

Then we substitute the equation into the quadratic equation.

$\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}$

Where a = 1 b = 4 and c = 0

$\frac{-(4)+- \sqrt{(4)^2-4(1)(0)} }{2(1)}$

We first solve whats inside the square root.

$\frac{-(4)+- \sqrt{16} }{2(1)}$

$\sqrt{16} = 4$

Now we solve for -4 and 4.

$-4 - 4 = -8$
$-4+4=0$

Then divide both answer by 2

$\frac{-8}{2} = -4$
The division of any by zero is zero

So the answer are x = -4 and x = 0

Answer:

0.343

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the different ways one can chose a professor or instructor. In this case, there are 8 professors and 4 instructors. So there are a total of 12 ways you can choose a professor or instructor.

Second, you want to find the different ways you can choose any member of the faculty. In this example, since you are only choosing one person, then you just find the total number of people in the faculty, which is 8 + 11 + 12 + 4 = 35.

Third, all you do is divide the different ways you can get a professor or instructor by the total different ways you can choose. So it's 12/35, or 0.343.
