Part A:
Let the length of one of the sides of the rectangle be L, then the length of the other side is obtained as follow.
Let the length of the other side be x, then

Thus, if the length of one of the side is x, the length of the other side is 8 - L.
Hence, the area of the rectangle in terms of L is given by

Part B:
To find the domain of A
Recall that the domain of a function is the set of values which can be assumed by the independent variable. In this case, the domain is the set of values that L can take.
Notice that the length of a side of a rectangle cannot be negative or 0, thus L cannot be 8 as 8 - 8 = 0 or any number greater than 8.
Hence the domain of the area are the set of values between 0 and 8 not inclusive.
Therefore,
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin
In this problem we have
This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form
where
The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin
In a proportional relationship the value of b (y-intercept) is equal to zero
Answer:
and
.
Step-by-step explanation:
To this relation be a function, the horizontal coordinates can't be equal. So, let's find the value of
that makes those coordinates equal.

Using the null factor property, we have

Therefore, the given relation is not a function when
and
.
Answer:
ΔABC ~ ΔDEF
Step-by-step explanation:
If the given triangles ΔABC and ΔDEF are similar,
Their corresponding sides will be proportional.

By substituting the measures of the given sides,

2 = 2 = 2
Since, corresponding sides of both the triangles are proportional, both the triangles will be similar.
ΔABC ~ ΔDEF
Answer:
C 37.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 planets closer to the sun than mars
3/8 = .375
Changing to a percent
37.5% are closer to the sun than mars
