Answer:

A square has 4 sides with equal length.

So the perimeter of a square is equal to 4 times the length of one side.

Now, suppose that we know that the length of one side of the garden is x.

Then the total length of the fence that surrounds the square is:

L = 4*x.

Now let's define proportional quantities:

x and y are proportional quantities if:

x = k*y

where k is a constant of proportionality.

In the case of our problem, we have a relation between L (total length of the fence) and x (length of one side of the garden)

L = 4*x

This is a proportional relation, and 4 is the constant of proportionality.

Line b passes through points (5, 5) and (10, 8). Line c passes through points (4, 8) and (1, 13). Are line b and line c parallel
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In going from (5, 5) to (10, 8), x (the run) increases by 5 and y (the rise) increases by 3.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting the first two points is m = 3/5.

In going from (1, 13) to (4, 8), x (the run) increases by 3 and y (the rise) decreases by 5.  Thus, the slope of the line connecting the first two points is m = -5/3

Because these results are negative reciprocals of one another, the two lines are PERPENDICULAR to one another.

5) Last week a Pizza Hut sold 36 cheese pizzas, 64 pepperoni pizzas, and 20 veggie pizzas. Based on these data, which number is
Goshia [24]

Answer:

P(Cheese) = 0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cheese = 36

Pepperoni = 64

Veggie = 20

Required

P(Cheese)

This is calculated as:

P(Cheese) = \frac{Cheese}{Total}

P(Cheese) = \frac{36}{36+64+20}

P(Cheese) = \frac{36}{120}\\

P(Cheese) = 0.30
