  1. Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same.
  2. The initial value and slope of the graph are 66 and 44 respectively.

<h3>Why are the two slopes the same?</h3>

Considering the two right-angled triangles (ΔABD and ΔBCE) with the following points A(2, 154), B(1, 110), D(2, 110) and E(1, 66).

Since the triangles are similar, the slope of line segment AD is given by:

Tanθ = AD/BE

Tanθ = (154 - 110)/(110 - 66)

Tanθ = 44/44

Tanθ = 1.

Also, the slopes of line segment BD is given by:

Tan∅ = BD/CE

Tan∅ = (2 - 1)/(1 - 0)

Tan∅ = 1/1

Tan∅ = 1.

Therefore, the slope of line segment AD and line segment BD are the same because θ is equal to ∅.

<h3>What are the initial value and slope of the graph?</h3>

By critically observing the graph, we can logically deduce that the initial value of this graph is 66 and it represents the shark's distance at the initial time (0 minute).

For the slope, we have:

Slope = Δy/Δx

Slope = (154 - 66)/(2 - 0)

Slope = 88/2

Slope = 44.

<u>Complete Question:</u>

The graph shows the depth, y, in meters, of a shark from the surface of an ocean for a certain amount of time, x, in minutes:

Part A: Describe how you can use similar triangles to explain why the slope of the graph between points A and B is the same as the slope of the graph between points A and C.

Part B: What are the initial value and slope of the graph, and what do they represent?

You like the size of your MP3 player. The width is 4 centimeters. The length is 7 centimeters. The height measures 1 centimeter.
Basile [38]

Answer:

78mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

based on the information given, we can tell that the shape of the MP3 player is a rectangle. The formula for the surface area of a rectangle is SA=2WL+2LH+2HW

SA = Surface Area

W = Width

L = Length

H = Height

SA = 2(4)(7) + 2(7)(1) + 2(1)(4)

= 2(28) + 2(7) + 2(4)

= 56 + 14 + 8

= 78

A manufacturing company has a policy that states managers are paid a salary that is proportional to the number of employees they
user100 [1]
From the problem description, we can construct an algebraic equation for the situation. Let S be the salary and x be the number of employees.

S = kx
where k is the proportionality constant

Using variation,

k = S₁/x₁ = S₂/x₂

Substituting,

34000/12 ? 36000/16
2833.33 ? 2250
Thus,
2833.33 ≠ 2250
<em>It does not follow the company's policy.</em>
