9.3/5 means that each pound is $1.86.

3/4 ($1.86) =$1.395 or $1.40 for 3/4 pound of peanuts. Hope that helps. :)

A train travels 56 kilometers in 4 hours, and then 90 kilometers in 2 hours. what is its average speed?

ankoles [38]

56 + 90 = 146 kilometers
4 + 2 = 6 hours

rate = 146 km / 6 hour
= 24.333 km / hour

Please find the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM with vertices J(6, 10), K(10, 6), L(8, 2), and M(2, 2). Thank y

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM = $\mathbf{ = 3 \sqrt{5} }$ i.e 6.708 units on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram attached below; we can see a graphical representation showing the mid-segment of the trapezoid JKLM. The mid-segment is located at the line parallel to the sides of the trapezoid. However; these mid-segments are X and Y found on the line JK and LM respectively from the graph.

Using the expression for midpoints between two points to determine the exact length of the mid-segment ; we have:

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(8-5)^2+(8-2)^2} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{(3)^2+(6)^2} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{9+36} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{45} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = \sqrt{9*5} }$

$\mathbf{ YX = 3 \sqrt{5} }$

Thus; the exact length of the midsegment of trapezoid JKLM = $\mathbf{ = 3 \sqrt{5} }$ i.e 6.708 units on the graph

Q#2 Graph the relation in the table.Then use the vertical-line test.Is the relation a function

tresset_1 [31]

The graph of the relation between x and y is as shown in attached figure

By applying the vertical line test we find that the relation is not a function because there are two points which are (1,-1) , (1,3) have the same value of x with different values of y which contradicts with with the rule of function.
