we know that

In a parallelogram opposite sides are parallel and congruent

AB=DC

AD=BC

in this problem

AX ≅ CY

then

BX ≅DY

therefore

Area of the trapezoid AXYD is equal to the area of the trapezoid XBCY and the sum of the areas of both trapezoids is equal to the area of parallelogram ABCD

<u>the answer is the option</u>

Each area is equal to half of the area of ABCD

To answer this question you would subtract the $250 deductible from $1400. The answer would be $1150 remaining After the deductible. You would then pay 10% of this $1150 for your cost. 0.10 times $1150 =$115. Add the $115 to the $250 deductible and your total cost would be $365.

Which graph represents the function of f(x) = the quantity of 9 x squared plus 9 x minus 18, all over 3 x plus 6

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The answer is the option C

graph of $3x$ minus $3$ , with discontinuity at negative $2$ , negative $9$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=\frac{9x^{2}+9x-18}{3x+6}$

Simplify

$f(x)=9\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{3(x+2)}$

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}$

Step 1

Convert to a factored form the numerator

$x^{2}+x-2=0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$x^{2}+x=2$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2+0.25$

$x^{2}+x+0.25=2.25$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+0.5)^{2}=2.25$

Square root both sides

$x+0.5=(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5(+/-)1.5$

$x=-0.5+1.5=1$

$x=-0.5-1.5=-2$

$x^{2}+x-2=(x-1)(x+2)$

Step 2

Simplify the function f(x)

$f(x)=3\frac{(x^{2}+x-2)}{(x+2)}=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}$

The domain of the function f(x) is all real numbers except the number $x=-2$

Because the denominator can not be zero

$f(x)=3\frac{(x-1)(x+2)}{(x+2)}=3(x-1)=3x-3$

$f(x)=3x-3$ ------> with a discontinuity at $x=-2$

$f(-2)=3(-2)-3=-9$

The discontinuity is at point $(-2,-9)$

University graduates have a mean job search time of 38.1 weeks, with a standard deviation of 10.1 weeks. The distribution of job

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

7.1 weeks to 68.4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Chebyshev's Theorem states that:

75% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

89% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 38.1

Standard deviation = 10.1

Between what two search times does Chebyshev's Theorem guarantee that we will find at least 89% of the graduates

Between 3 standard deviations of the mean.

So from 38.1 - 3*10.1 = 7.8 weeks to 38.1 + 3*10.1 = 68.4 weeks
