I assume by starting value, you mean y-intercept. The y-intercept is 15
To find this, we need to use slope intercept form and the given information to find it.
y = mx + b ----> plug in the known values
9 = -3/4(8) + b
9 = -6 + b
15 = b
Therefore, the starting value is 15.
Answer - C. The ratio of the corresponding sides will be equal
Two triangles<span> can be shown to be </span>similar<span> if it can be proven that they have two sets of corresponding sides in equal proportion and that the corresponding angles, which they include are congruent.</span>
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
You have not provided the options to help us give you a specific answer.
If a quadratic function is written in the form

Then (h,k) is the vertex, and 'a' is a constant.
For instance

has vertex at (2,3).
Also, an absolute function in the form

has vertex at (h,k).
This means

also has vertex at (1,3).
I hope this explanation is helpful.
ANSWER

EXPLANATION
The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula,

We substitute the dimensions to obtain,

The volume of the rectangular pyramid is,

Equating the two volumes gives,

We divide through by 6×12 to get,

We solve for x to obtain,
