By applying <em>reflection</em> theory and constructing a <em>geometric</em> system of two <em>proportional right</em> triangles, the height of the stainless steel globe is approximately 140 ft.

<h3>How to estimate the height of the stainless steel globe</h3>

By physics we know that both the angle of incidence and the angle of reflection are same. Thus, we have a <em>geometric</em> system formed by two <em>proportional right</em> triangles:

5.6 ft / 4 ft = h / 100 ft

h = (5.6 ft × 100 ft) / 4ft

h = 140 ft

By applying <em>reflection</em> theory and constructing a <em>geometric</em> system of two <em>proportional right</em> triangles, the height of the stainless steel globe is approximately 140 ft.

1. Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card. He plans to pay the minimum payment
atroni [7]

Given:

Charlie bought a new computer for $450 with his credit card.

He plans to pay the minimum payment  of $25 per month.

To find:

The rate of change.

Solution:

Let y be the remaining amount of loan after x months.

Initial amount of loan = $450

Payment of one month = $25

Payment of x months = $25x

Now,

Remining amount = Initial amount of loan - Payment of x months

y=450-25x     ...(i)

The slope intercept form is

y=mx+b     ...(ii)

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

From (i) and (ii), we get

m=-25

Therefore, the rate of change is -25 dollars.

6x + 7y = 1<br> 8x – 3y = 25<br> Solve me fast explainly
Elenna [48]

Answer:

{x,y} = {89/37,-71/37}

Step-by-step explanation:

 8x = 3y + 25

 [2]    x = 3y/8 + 25/8

Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    6•(3y/8+25/8) + 7y = 1

  [1]    37y/4 = -71/4

  [1]    37y = -71

Solve equation [1] for the variable  y  

  [1]    37y = - 71

  [1]    y = - 71/37

By now we know this much :

   x = 3y/8+25/8

   y = -71/37

Use the  y  value to solve for  x  

   x = (3/8)(-71/37)+25/8 = 89/37

How can Kendra determine if the function is actually linear?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

D. She can check to see if the rate of change between the first two ordered pairs is the same as the rate of change between the first and last ordered pairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rate of change between first two ordered pairs and the second two ordered pairs:

1. Points (2,4) and (3,9). Rate of change:

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{9-4}{3-2}=\dfrac{5}{1}=5

2. Points (3,9) and (4,16). Rate of change:

\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{16-9}{4-3}=\dfrac{7}{1}=7

The rate of change for the linear function must the same for each two points on the graph of the function. In this case, the reate of change differs, so this function is not linear and correct option is D.
