Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given options are:

The key to determining which product is negative is to understand the rule of sign multiplication.
Now:
- The product of even negative terms is positive
- The product of odd negative terms is negative.
- The product of positive will always be positive.
In Options A and B, the number of negative signs is even, therefore our result is positive.
In option C, all the terms are positive, therefore our result will be positive.
In Option D, the number of negative signs is odd, therefore our result is negative.
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b. m being the rate of the slope (rise over run) so in this case 2/1, or simply 2. b is the y intercept, or where a line passes through the y intercept, in this case it is -1.
The area of the trapezoid can be calculated through the equation,
A = (b₁ + b₂)h / 2
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given,
A = (25mm + 32mm)(15 mm) / 2
A = 427.5 mm²
Since there are two trapezoids in the necklace, the area calculated is to be multiplied by two to get the total area.
total area = (427.5 mm²)(2)
<em>total area = 855 mm²</em>
No, this rel. is not proportional because of the addition involved ("plus 1 lb for each guest").
A proportional rel. features mult. only.
