<span>In two similar triangles, like the one we see above, the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of their sides. 

Based on the graph, we see that BD is 3 times larger than BA. This means that the area of DBE will be 3</span>² times larger, or 9 times larger, than the area of ABC.

Area of ABC = 3 square units
Area of DBE = 3 * 9 = 27 square units
Answer is A.

On a coordinate plane, square P Q R S is shown. Point P is at (4, 2), point Q is at (8, 5), point R is at (5, 9), and point S is
sergey [27]

Answer:

(D)The midpoint of both diagonals is (4 and one-half, 5 and one-half), the slope of RP is 7, and the slope of SQ is Negative one-sevenths.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Point P is at (4, 2),
  • Point Q is at (8, 5),
  • Point R is at (5, 9), and
  • Point S is at (1, 6)

Midpoint of SQ =\frac{1}{2}(1+8,5+6)=(4.5,5.5)

Midpoint of PR =\frac{1}{2}(4+5,2+9)=(4.5,5.5)

Now, we have established that the midpoints (point of bisection) are at the same point.

Two lines are perpendicular if the slope of one is the negative reciprocal of the other.

In option D

  • Slope of RP =7
  • Slope of SQ  =-\dfrac17

Therefore, lines RP and SQ are perpendicular.

Option D is the correct option.

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt. The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 . If s represents the cost
dolphi86 [110]

Let the price of 1 shirt be represented by = s

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt, then the cost of pants is = 2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 , means : s+2s=18

Solving this we get,                            

3s=18

s=6

So, the price of 1 shirt is $6 and price of 1 pair of pants is = 2s = 2*6 = $12.
