In rectangle MNPQ, the ratio of the length of MN to the length of PM is 4:5. What if MN is 20cm long. How long is MP?

step-by-step explanation:

we have

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

this is a quadratic equation (vertical parabola) open up

the vertex is a > vertex

the domain of the function is all real > interval (-∞,∞)

the range of the function is the > [-6.125,∞)

the function has two x->   and

the function is increasing over the > (0.25,∞)

the function is decreasing over the > (-∞,0.25)

answer:

the answer is b) divide by -4 on each side and flip the sign.

step-by-step explanation:

we first need to start by dividing. this is because it is a multiplication problem to start.

we also need to make sure we flip the sign because any time you multiply or divide by negative numbers, the sign must be flipped.
