He needs to fence the entire perimeter, so all you have to do is find the perimeter. P= S+S+S+S, which is 125, 200, 125, and 200. Add them together and you get 650, so he needs 650 feet of fence.
Y1 is the simplest parabola. Its vertex is at (0,0) and it passes thru (2,4). This is enough info to conclude that y1 = x^2.
y4, the lower red graph, is a bit more of a challenge. We can easily identify its vertex, which is (-4,0), and several points on the grah, such as (2,-3).
Let's try this: assume that the general equation for a parabola is
y-k = a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex. Subst. the known values,
-3-(-4) = a(2-0)^2. Then 1 = a(2)^2, or 1 = 4a, or a = 1/4.
The equation of parabola y4 is y+4 = (1/4)x^2
Or you could elim. the fraction and write the eqn as 4y+16=x^2, or
4y = x^2-16, or y = (1/4)x - 4. Take your pick! Hope this helps you find "a" for the other parabolas.
The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.
Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories) means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.
Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
Answer:
x = 30, x = 5 and x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisectors of each other, so
∠ AEB = 90° , then
3x = 90 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 30
---------------------------------------------------------
(9)
The 4 angles of a square are right and the diagonals bisect the angles, then
∠ BAC = 45° , so
9x = 45 ( divide both sides by 9 )
x = 5
-------------------------------------------------------
(10)
All sides are congruent , so
CD = AB , that is
3x - 5 = 2x + 4 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
x - 5 = 4 ( add 5 to both sides )
x = 9
