Shirley is drawing triangles that have the same area. The base of each triangle varies inversely with the height. What are the p

The possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

<h3>How to determine the possible base and height of a second triangle?</h3>

An inverse variation is represented as:

Base * Height = k

Where k is the constant of variation.

In this case, k is the area

So, we have:

Base * Height  = Area

For the first triangle, we have:

14 * 6 = Area

Evaluate

Area = 84

Substitute Area = 84 in Base * Height  = Area

Base * Height  = 84

Express 84 as the product of two numbers

Base * Height  = 12 * 7

By comparison;

Base =12 and Height = 7

Hence, the possible base and height of a second triangle are 12 and 7, respectively

The average rate of the change from x = 2 to x = 5 is about 20 , The domain is constrained at x =0

<h3>What is a Function ?</h3>

A function is a mathematical statement used to derive a relation between a dependent variable and an independent variable.

A) The vertical axis of the graph shows a company's profit f(x), in dollars, depending on the price of pencils x, in dollars, sold by the company , i.e is the x axis .

So the x-intercepts represent prices of the pencil at which the profit is 0

and The maximum value of the graph represents the maximum profit that can be obtained for any price of the pencil.

The Profit is increasing from (x = 0 to 5) and starts decreasing from x =5 to 10

B) From the graph

(f(5) -f(2))/(5 -2) = (160-100)/3  = 20

The average rate of the change from x = 2 to x = 5 is about 20.

This indicates that the profit will increase at a an average rate of $20 for each $1 increase in price in that interval.

(C)The domain is constrained at x =0 as there it cannot be concluded that if the price is 0 , the profit will be 0 , and we are obligated to sell the pencil at x =6 , as the maximum profits are booked at that point.

Answer:

If they are travelling in opposite directions, their total distance is the 135. So add their distances together to get 135

x=Quinn's speed

x+5 = James' speed

they each travel for 5 hours

speed x time = distance

x(5) + (x+5)(5) = 135

Quinn's distance + James' distance = total distance

5x+5x+25=135

10x = 110

x = 11

Quinn travels at 11 mph and James travels at 16 mph

Quinn travels 55 miles (5x11)

and James travels 80 miles (16 x 5)

80 + 55=135
