Answer:
y =
x²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y and x² are directly proportional then the equation relating them is
y = kx² ← k is the constant of proportion
When x = 2
y = k × 2² = 4k
When x = 5
y = k × 5² = 25k
Then
25k - 4k = 20 ( difference between values is 20 )
21k = 20 ( divide both sides by 21 )
k = 
y =
x² ← equation of proportion
Answer:

Given:
two pieces of wood that are 5 feet long each.
form a triangle with a perimeter of a whole number.
third side the triangle will be the house
Since two sides are already of the same length, he can create an isosceles triangle.
An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles.
Assuming that the 3rd side is also 5 feet long, then, he can create an equilateral triangle.
An equilateral triangle has three equal sides and three equal angles, measuring 60° each angle.
Answer:
length = 6 yards
width = 3.5 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
the length of a rectangle is 1 yard less than twice the width
LEt 'w' be the width of the rectangle
and 'l' be the length of the rectangle
length l = 2 times the width -1
so l = 2w -1
Area of the rectangle = length * width
Area = l * w
we know length is 2w-1 and given area = 21
21 = (2w-1) * w

subtract 21 on both sides

now solve for 'w'

0 = 2w(w+3)-7(w+3)
0= (2w-7)(w+3)
2w-7 = 0 and w+3 =0
w = 7/2 w=-3
width cannot be negative so we ignore w=-3
width w= 3.5
length = 2w-1= 2(3.5) - 1= 7-1=6
length = 6 yards
