If the area of a parallelogram is found by multiplying the base times the height, A=bh.

Is this graph a function or not a function?

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

It is a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can test if a graph is a function if you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph and you see it hits two points.

This is the table for the graph.

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x&y\\-3&0\\0&1\\3&2\end{array}\right]$

Remember these rules:

Each x value, or input, has its unique y value, or output
If you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph, it should only go through one point

We can check these two rules for this graph:

Does each x value have its own, unique y value? Yes
If you draw a vertical line anywhere on the graph, does it only go through one point? Yes, there are no overlaps

Keep in mind that two different x-values can have the same y value.

Figure 1:

It has two x values with the same y-values.

Figure 2 and 3:

The vertical line goes through two points. So the same x-value has two different y-values.

The length of a rectangle is twice its width. Find its area, if its perimeter is 7 and 1/3 cm.

Answer:

2.99 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>(The "..." at the end of the decimal means that number is repeating)</em>

The perimeter of a rectangle is the length around the shape. The equation for a rectangle's perimeter is L + W × 2, with L and W representing length and width, respectively (You multiply the length and width by two because the shape is four-sided, so it has two length sides and two width sides). To find the area of the rectangle, you need to know the individual length and width, so you'll solve for that first.

Since you're only given the perimeter and you know the length is double the width, you'll need to work backwards with this equation. To do this, first divide the perimeter (7 $\frac{1}{3}$ , also written as 7.33...) by 2; this equals 3 $\frac{2}{3\\}$ , also written as 3.66...

Next, you can find the length and width by determining what two numbers multiply to equal 3.66..., with one number being two times larger than the other number. The way I tend to think of this is that if one number is double the other, then the smaller number is one third of the sum of the two numbers (since the smaller number represents one part of the sum, and the other represents two parts of the sum, which is double the smaller number).

Since the length and width combine to be the divided perimeter, 3.66..., that means two thirds of 3.66... is the longer side (the length), and then the one third of 3.66... is the shorter side (the width). This means the length is 2.44... and the width is 1.22...

Finally, you can solve for the perimeter by dividing the perimeter by two and then subtracting the length squared. The written equation looks like this:

A = P $\frac{1}{2}$ - L²
