If the slope of AB = CD and BC = AD it's a parallelogram:

Slope of AB = 6+1 / -9+5 = -7/4

CD = -2-5 / 3+1 = -74

These are equal.

BC = 5-6 / -1 +9 = -1/8

AD = -2 +1 / 3+5 = -1/8

These are also equal so it is a parallelogram.

Now to find if the diagonals are perpendicular find the slope of the perpensicular points:

AC = 5 +1 / -1 +5 = 6/4 = 3/2

BD = 6+2 / -9 -3 = 8/-12 = -2/3

Because BD is the reciprocal of AC, this means they are perpendicular.

And because AB is not perpendicular to AD ( AB and AD are not reciprocals) it is a rhombus.

A farmer fills his field proportionately with soybeans and corn. Last year he planted 200 acres of corn and 50 acres of soybeans

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Part A) Is a directly proportional

Part B) The constant of proportionality is $k=0.25$

Part C) The equation is $y=0.25x$

Part D) $62.5$ acres of soybeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) Are the number of acres of corn and the number of acres of soybeans directly proportional or inversely proportional?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form $y/x=k$

Let

x-----> the number of acres of corn

y----> the number of acres of soybeans

$y/x=k$

if the number of acres of corn increases then the number of acres of soybeans increases

if the number of acres of corn decreases then the number of acres of soybeans decreases

therefore

The relationship is a directly proportional

Part B) What is the constant of proportionality?

we have that

For x=200, y=50

substitute

$y/x=k$

$k=50/200$

$k=0.25$

Part C) Let x equal the number of acres of corn and y equal the number of acres of soybeans. Write an equation to show this relationship.

The linear equation that represent the direct variation is equal to

$y/x=k$

we have

$k=0.25$

substitute

$y/x=0.25$

$y=0.25x$

Part D) How many acres of soybeans can the farmer plant this year if he plants 250 acres of corn?

For x=250

Find the value of y

substitute in the linear equation the value of x and solve for y

$y=0.25(250)=62.5$ -----> acres of soybeans

A triangle has two sides of length 19 and 15. What is the largest possible whole-number length for the third side?

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: 33

To maximize the length of the third side, which I'll call x, it needs to be the longest side.

So by the triangle inequality theorem, 19+15>x, meaning the maximum whole number value of x is 33.

Bill wanted to know how many times students at his middle school go to the beach each week during the summer. He surveyed every

pshichka [43]

The survey was intended for Bill's middle school during the summer. The

survey was administered to students of other schools on a Saturday.

The type of error is the <u>selection bias error</u>.

Reasons:

The type of error made is a non sampling error, given that the target of the

study is the number of times in a week students at his middle school

attend the beach during the summer.

The errors are; Selection bias error.

The given that the students survey are not from his middle school.

The survey was carried out once on a Saturday, where the target was during the summer.

The selection bias error is a type error that is due to the researcher

chooses what to study, such that the participant have common

characteristics rather than being random.

Can someone help me out how to work on this.

enyata [817]

Answer:

I don't think any are a correct graph of the function. But here are the ordered pairs. (1,0),(0,-2),(-1,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Take three values for x and plug them in for your y's. For instance x values of 1,0,-1. Plug each in to find the y value. 2(1) - 2 =y so (1,0)
