No. Because sides JM and KL have different slopes from sides AD and BC .

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

For AD:

We have the points A(2, -2) and D(1, -4). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-4-(-2)}{1-2}=\dfrac{-2}{-1}=2

For JM:

We have the points J(4, -4) and M(2, -9). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-9-(-4)}{2-4}=\dfrac{-5}{-2}=2.5

2\neq2.5

----------------------------------------

Another argument.

No. Because the MJ is not twice as long as AD.

The formula of the length of a segment:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

The length of AD:

|AD|=\sqrt{(1-2)^2+(-4-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{(-1)^2+(-2)^2}=\sqrt{1+4}=\sqrt5

The length of MJ:

|MJ|=\sqrt{(2-4)^2+(-9-(-4))^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+(-5)^2}=\sqrt{4+25}=\sqrt{29}

\sqrt{29}\neq2\sqrt5

A paint mixture was formed by mixing exactly 3 colors of paint. By volume, the mixture was x% blue paint, y% green paint, and z%
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Both statements are sufficient to answer the question

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The paint mixture has following proportions:

 Total volume of paint = T

 Blue:  x*T / 100

 Green: y*T/100

 Red: z*T/100

Find:

Statement 1: x = y

Statement: z = 60

Which of the above statement is sufficient to calculate the amount of green paint used

Solution:

Statement 1:

- The amount of blue paint used is:

                    1 gallon = x*T / 100

- x = y,

                    1 gallon = y*T / 100

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient

Statement 2:

- The amount of red paint used is:

                    3 gallon = z*T / 100

                    T = 300 / z = 300 / 60 = 5 gallons

                    T = R + B + G

                    G = T - R - B

                    G = 5 - 3 - 1

                    G = 1 gallons

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient

Franco made a dozen muffins for his party. Upon taking them out of the oven,
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is incomplete; find the complete question with the attachment.

Franco made number of muffins = a dozen

A dozen muffins = 12 muffins

Number of muffins were burned = 2

Remaining muffins = 12 - 2 = 10

Franco served 7 of the remaining non-burned muffins,

Fraction of muffins served = \frac{7}{10}

Remaining muffins = 3

Fraction of remaining muffins = \frac{3}{10}

Fraction of remaining non-burned muffins we can get from,

\frac{10}{10}-\frac{7}{10}=\frac{3}{10}

Option B is the correct equation.

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>All triangles add up to 180 degrees</u>

76 + 17x + 9x = 180

76 + 17x + 9x - 76 = 180 - 76

26x / 26 = 104 / 26

x = 4
