Answer:

x = 18; y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles KLM and KNO are similar, so the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides are equal.

KL/KN = LM/NO

10/30 = 6/x

Cross multiply.

10x = 6 * 30

10x = 180

x = 18

KL + LN = KN

10 + y = 30

y = 20

The function y = 4x + 3 describes Player A's

anyanavicka [17]

The rates of change of points earned by both players tell us that;

Player A gains more point than Player B does for each correct answer in this round.

We are told that x is the number of

number ofquestions answered correctly and y is the score.

Now, for player B;

For 1 correct answer, he got a score of 4

For 2 correct answers, he got a score of 5

For 3 correct answers, he got a score of 6

For 4 correct answers, he got a score of 7

This means that rate of change of Player B is;

3 points for every extra question answered correctly. .

Now, the formula for player A's points is;

y = 4x + 3

Rate of change of points here is gotten by finding the derivative. Thus;

dy/dx = 4

This means player A earns 4 points for every extra question answered correctly.

In conclusion, it mean that Player A gains more point than Player B does for each correct answer in this round.

Given the graph below, which of the following statements is true?

Nesterboy [21]

To be a function, it has to pass the vertical line test, which means a vertical line drawn anywhere in the graph should cut the graph only once, not more.

To be a one-to-one function, it has to pass the vertical line test as well as the horizontal line test, which means that a horizontal line drawn anywhere in the graph should cut the graph only once, not more.

Of course, it passes the vertical line test, so its a function.

Does it pass the horizontal line test? NO! As shown in the attached picture, the blue line (horizontal line) cuts the graph at 3 places. We therefore eliminate choices A and B. We can eliminate choice C because nowhere is it required a function to pass through the origin for it to be one-to-one. Hence, the answer is D (blue line shows this).

Samantha is wall papering her bedroom and wants to make sure that she bought enough wall paper. Each wall in her room measures 1

Gala2k [10]

Answer:

17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the room carefully, the length of the room is 11 feet

And the height = 10 feet

The area of the 4 walls of the room = 4( 11×10) = 440 sq ft

Area covered by each roll = 25 sq ft

= 440/25 = 17.60 rolls

Therefore we require 17.60 rolls to cover a rectangular room on all four sides.

A police officer believes red cars speed more often than any other color car. During his 25 shifts this month, he records the nu

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, the following statement is true. The police officer is gathering data by writing down all the speeding tickets and seperating them into two categories, red and non-red cars. He can later analyze this data and compare them to determine whether or not his hypothesis is true.

b. The color of the car is the only variable that would not be a confounding variable in this scenario. This would instead be the independent variable and does not in any way affect the dependent variable which would be the number of speeding tickets received.

measure the lines with small paper clips and then with a centimeter ruler. Line 1, has 3 paper clips = 12 cm with ruler. Line 2,

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Its because the paper clips used here are of same length (4cm long).

So the measurements of lines two and three need to be multiples of 4 to me measured accurately with the paper.

i.e Line two needs to be 6cm + 2cm = 8cm (eight is a muliple of 4)

Line three needs to be 9cm + 3cm = 12cm (twelve is a multiple of 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line 1 has 3 paper clips and its 12cm in length, the size of the paper clips is 4cm.

Line 2 is 6cm long and will require two more centimeters to measured accurately by the 4cm-paper clips.

Line 3 is 9cm and will require three more centimeters to be measured accurately by the 4cm-paper clips.
