Matt looks at the architectural plan of a four-walled room in which the walls meet each other at right angles. The length of one

wall in the plan is 19 inches. The length of the diagonal of the floor of the room in the plan is approximately 20.62 inches.
Is the room in the shape of a square? Explain how you determined your answer. Show all your work.

Answer:

No it is not a square.

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides and 1 right angle (which means 4 right angles.

The Pythagorean Theorem would result is

19^2 + 19^2 = 722 if the figure was a square.

Since the diagonal of this figure is 20. 62^2 = 415.2, the diagonal isn't log enough for the figure to be a square.

What are the solutions of 8x2 = 6 + 22x? Check all of the boxes that apply.
Sholpan [36]
Transpose all the terms in the left hand side of the equation. The equation then becomes,
                         8x²  - 22x - 6 =0
Divide both sides of the equation by 2,
                        4x² - 11x - 3 = 0 

In this equation, A = 4, B = -11, and C = -3

With the variables identified, the quadratic equation can be used to identify the roots,
                         x = (-B +/- √B² - 4AC) / 2A
The values of x in the equation are,
                        <em> x = 3 and x = -1/4
</em>
<em />Thus, the one of the answer to this item is the third choice, x = 3. <em>

Points A(-2,3), B(-5,-4), and C(2,-1) form triangle ABC on a coordinate plane. What is the area of this triangle in square units
Veseljchak [2.6K]

1. Draw an accurate picture of the triangle in the coordinate axes, as shown in the attached picture.<span>

<span>2. Circumscribe a rectangle about the triangle, as shown in the picture. The coordinates of the points M, N, T are easily identifiable as shown in the picture.</span>

<span>3. The area of the triangle ABC is  The area of the rectangle - Area 1- Area 2- Area 3.</span>

Area 1 = 1/2(3*7)=21/2
Area 2 = 1/2(4*4)=1/2*16=8
<span>Area 3 = 1/2( 3*7)=21/2</span>

<span>Area 1+Area 2+Area 3=21/2+21/2+8=21+8=29 (units squared)</span>

<span>Area rectangle=  7*7=49 (units squared)</span>


<span>Answer: Area of triangle is 20 units squared.</span></span>

One similar figure has an area that is nine times the area of another. The larger figure must have dimensions that are times the
frutty [35]
T<span>he area of a figure is the measure of the extent of a two dimensional figure which is usually measured as the square units of the dimensions of the figure.

For example, given a figure with dimensions, say k, the area of the figure is given by k^2.
</span>
<span>Given that o<span>ne similar figure has an area that is nine times the area of another.

Since the two figures are similar, it means that there areas will be proportional as their dimensions will be proportional.

Let the dimensions of the smaller figure be k and the larger figure is p times the smaller figure. Then the area of the smaller figure is k^2 and the area of the larger figure is (pk)^2.

Now, given that the area of the larger figure is nine times the area of the smaller figure, this means that:
\frac{(pk)^2}{k^2} = \frac{9}{1}  \\  \\  \frac{p^2k^2}{k^2} =9 \\  \\ p^2=9 \\  \\ p= \sqrt{9}  \\ \\ p=3
</span>
Therefore, the larger figure must have dimensions that are 3 times the dimensions of the smaller figure.</span>

Which sequences are arithmetic? Check all that apply.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Option C and E are correct.

The sequences which are arithmetic:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence states that a sequence in which a common difference between each consecutive term is constant.

Common difference(d) = a_{n+1}-a_n for every natural number n.

Option A:

-5, 5, -5, 5, -5, .....

5-(-5) = 5+5 = 10 ,

-5 -5 = -10 .....

Since, the common difference for the given sequence is not constant.

Option B:

96, 48, 24, 12, 6

48 -96 = -48

24-48 = -24 ....

Common difference for the given sequence is not constant.

Option C:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

5.5-18  = -12.5

-7 -5.5 = -12.5 ....

∴Common difference for the sequence is constant.

Option D:

-1, -3, -9, -27, -81 ,....

-3 -(-1) = -3+1 = -2

-9-(-3) = -9+3 = -6 ....

∴Common difference for the sequence is not constant.

Option E:

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

32-16 = 16

48 - 32 = 16 and so on...

∴Common difference for the sequence is constant.

Therefore, the sequences which are arithmetic are:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

16, 32, 48, 64, 80
