Answer:

21.74 But if it tells you to round I would round to 21 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

its basically just a ratio of 92 to 20

92/20=4.6

92-20=72% the amount that is lost

so given that the plum is 100 lbs we know that 72% is depleted

(72/92 = .78)X100= 78 lbs depleted

Lastly 100-78 =22 for the remaining weight of the prunes.

<h3>What is Function?</h3>

The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x.

Here, given function;

   f(x) = -x² - 4x + 6

1.    If we take -1 common from the given function, we get

                      f(x) = -1 (x² + 4x - 6)

                      f(x) = -1 (x² + 4x) + 6

      Thus, first block contains -1 and second block contains 4.

     

2.   Then we add half of the coefficient of x², (b/2)², inside the bracket and subtract it outside a times, a(b/2)².

                 f(x) = -1 ( x² + 2. 2x + 2²) +2² + 6

                 f(x) = -1 ( x² + 4x + 2²) +4 + 6

Thus, first block contains -1, second block contains 4, third block contains 4, and fourth block contains 4.

3. Then we factorize the bracket and simplify outside the bracket;

                 f(x) = -1 (x + 2)² + 10

Thus, first block contains -1, second block contains 2 and third block contains 10.

Determine whether The given segments have the same length. Justify your answer
Semenov [28]

We know the distance formula is

\sqrt{ (x_{2}-x_{1})^2+ (y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }

9)

Here A( -4,2) and B(1,4)

So length of AB

= \sqrt{(1-(-4))^2+(4-2)^2} =\sqrt{5^2+2^2} =\sqrt{29}

Also C(2,1)

Length of BC

= \sqrt{(2-1)^2+(-1-4)^2} =\sqrt{1^2+(-5)^2} =\sqrt{26}

So we can see that length of AB is not equal to length of BC

11.

Now AB = \sqrt{29}

Also C(2,-1) & D(4,4)

Length of CD

= \sqrt{(4-2)^2+(4-(-1)) ^2} =\sqrt{2^2+5^2} =\sqrt{29}

Yes AB = CD
