Luckily for us, the diagram already divided this figure into separate polygons. What I will be explaining is basically the addition of the areas of all the separate polygons. The area of the uppermost triangle is:
1/2 x b x h
= 1/2 x 20 x 8
(the base is 20, because in a parallelogram, opposite sides are congruent)
=10 x 8
= 80 in. squared
The next polygon we will be taking the area of is the parallelogram with the base length of 20 and the height of 16.
Area = b x h
= 20 x 16
= 320 in. squared
Now all we have left to do is add the two areas to obtain the total area.
Total Area = 320 + 80 = 400 in. squared
Answer:
"f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily"
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Complete Question:</u>
A virus that initially infected four people is spreading at a rate of 15% each week. The following function represents the weekly spread of the virus: f(x) = 4(1.15)x. Rewrite the function to show how quickly the virus spreads each day and calculate this rate as a percentage.
f(x) = 4(1.15)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 1.5% daily
f(x) = 4(1.02)7x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2% daily
f(x) = 4(1.157)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 2.66% daily
f(x) = 4(1.02)x; spreads at a rate of approximately 0.2% daily
<u>Solution:</u>
The weekly number of people infected would be:

7 days in a week, so daily number of people infected would be:

To find daily rate, we set these 2 equations equal and solve for r:

That is 0.02*100 = 2% daily
2nd answer choice is right.
Answer:
Plug in the values for x
Step-by-step explanation:
plug in x values into the equation
for example, plug -2 into the equation. y= -2(-2). y=4
So on and so forth
