So, to be a linear relationship....the difference between the two consecutive "x" values and the difference between the two consecutive "y" values must be same.

In this case,
if we look at the x values , 4 - 3 = 1
                                          3 - 2 = 1
                                          2 - 1 = 1
they are all the same,
<u>BUT,</u><u><em /></u> if we look at the y values, 11.5 - 8.5 = 3
                                                   8.5 - 6.5 = 2
                                                   6.5 - 4.5 = 2
Here, the differences between the "y" values are all not the same.

<em><u>SO, the relationship is not linear.</u></em>

An isosceles trapezoid ABCD with height 2 units has all its vertices on the parabola y=a(x+1)(x−5). What is the value of a, if p
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

  a=-\dfrac{3+9\sqrt{3}}{52}\approx −0.357470332079

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we assume that point A is (-1, 0) and point B is (z, 2). Since angle BAD is 60°, we have ...

  2/(z+1) = tan(60°) = √3

  z = (2/√3) -1

Putting the value of z into the equation for the parabola lets us find "a".

  2 = a(z +1)(z -5) = a(2/√3)(2/√3 -6)

Then ...

  a = 2/(4/3 -12/√3) = (6√3)/(4√3 -36)

  a = -(3+9√3)/52 ≈ −0.357470332079
