The height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.

<h3>How to find the height of the triangle?</h3>

Here we have a triangle such that two of the sides measure 9 inches, and the base measures 6 inches.

So this is an isosceles triangle.

We can divide the isosceles triangle into two smaller right triangles, such that the side that measures 9 inches is the hypotenuse, the base is 3 inches, and the height of the isosceles triangle is the other cathetus.

By Pythagorean's theorem, we can write:

(9in)^2 = (3 in)^2 + h^2

Where h is the height that we are trying to find.

Solving that for h we get:

h = √( (9 in)^2 - (3in)^2) = 8.49 inches.

We conclude that the height of the isosceles triangle is 8.49 inches.

The answer would be C. We know that d is equal to the initial depth of a lake. The two given initial depths are 58 feet and 53 feet, so we know that one of the equations must be either d=58 or d=53. Because there only C has either one of those, d=58, we know that it must be the answer.

To find the other equation, it is just a linear function for the other lake. The y-intercept, or initial value, is 53, so in the equation y=mx+b, it is the b value. The slope, or m value, is 3 feet, so you have y=d=3x+53.

Explain the meaning of continuity as it pertains to a function. Identify and explain the three conditions that must exist in ord
vesna_86 [32]

When there are no gaps or breaks on the graph, a function is continuous. When a function fails to be continuous, it is said to be discontinuous at that location.

<h3>What is Continuity in Calculus?</h3>

A function is continuous when there are no gaps or breaks in the graph. These gaps or breaks can be easily seen in a graph. They are also easily stated as holes, jumps, or vertical asymptotes. However, in calculus, you must be more specific in your definition of continuity.

There are three conditions that must be met in order to state a function is continuous at a certain point.

A function f(x) is continuous at a point a if only if the following three conditions are satisfied:

1.)f(a) is defined

2.)lim x→a f(x) exists

3.)lim x→a f(x)=f(a)

Therefore,  A function is discontinuous at a point a if it fails to be continuous at a.
