Answer:

The height of triangle EFG is 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the area of a square ABCD

The area of a square is equal to

A=b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

b=AB=6\ units

substitute

A=6^2=36\ units^2

step 2

Find the height of triangle EFG

The area of triangle EFG is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(b)(h)

where

b is the base of triangle

h is the height of triangle

we have

b=EG=8\ units

A=36\ units^2 ---> area of triangle EFG is the same that the area of square ABCD

substitute the given values in the formula

36=\frac{1}{2}(8)(h)

solve for h

36=4h\\h=9\ units

therefore

The height of triangle EFG is 9 units

HELP!! I NEED THIS QUICKLY
Elza [17]

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

(3/4,2/3),(1/4,1),(1,1/2) and (1/2,1)

x_1=\frac{3}{4}

y_1=\frac{2}{3}

x_2=\frac{1}{4},y_2=1

x_3=1,y_3=\frac{1}{2}

x_4=\frac{1}{2},y_4=1

k=\frac{1}{2}

Direct proportion:

\frac{x}{y}=k

Inverse proportion:xy=k

\frac{x_1}{y_1}=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{2}=\frac{9}{8}\neq \frac{1}{2}

Therefore, it is not in direct proportion.

\frac{1}{4\times 2}=\frac{1}{8}\neq\frac{1}{2}

\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}=2\neq \frac{1}{2}

x_1y_1=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{2}{3}=\frac{1}{2}

x_2y_2=\frac{1}{4}\times 2=\frac{1}{2}

x_3y_3=1\times \frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}

x_4y_4=\frac{1}{2}\times 1=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, xy=k=\frac{1}{2}

Hence, the given points form an inverse variation .

xy=\frac{1}{2}

y=\frac{1}{2x}

Option A and D is true.

F(x) = –2x2 + 4x + 1
ddd [48]

Answer:

x = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -2×2 +4x +1

f(x) = -4 +4x +1

f(x) = 4x -3

3 = 4x

3/4 = x

x= 3/4
