Answer: choice D) 20

-------------------------------

Explanation:

Locate 3 on the x axis number line. Draw a vertical line through 3 and this vertical line will cross the parabola at some point P. Mark this point P on the parabola. Then draw a horizontal line from P to the y axis. The horizontal line will land on y = 10. In short, this all shows us that (3,10) is a point on this parabola.

Repeat those steps above, but now for x = 7. You'll see that (7,90) is another point on this parabola.

We need to find the slope of the line through the two points (3,10) and (7,90). The average rate of change from x = 3 to x = 7 is the same as the slope of the line through those two points.

To find the slope, we use the slope formula
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) are the two points, and m is the slope

In this case,
(x1,y1) = (3,10) and (x2,y2) = (7,90)
further breaking down to
x1=3
y1=10
x2=7
y2=90
So we'll plug those four pieces of info into the equation and simplifying to get...
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (90 - 10)/(7 - 3)
m = 80/4
m = 20

The slope of the line is 20, so therefore, the average rate of change is 20.

Is 32,575,710 divisible by 6? HELPP MEE PLZZ!!
Yuliya22 [10]

It is.

To be divisible by 6, it has to be divisible by 2 and 3.

It's an even number so divisible by 2.

The sum of the digits is divisible by 3 so number is divisible by 3.

What is the total surface area of this rectangular pyramid?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer: 225 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the area of the 4 triangle and the area of the rectangle and thereafter we add everything together.

Area of triangle 1 = 1/2 base × height

= 1/2 × 12 × 8

=96/2

=48

Area of triangle 2 = area of triangle 1= 48( because the opposite triangle are congruent so they have equal base and height)

Area of triangle 3 = 1/2×base×height

= 1/2 × 6 ×9.5

= 57/2

=28.5

Area of triangle 4=Area of triangle 3 = 57 (the opposite triangle are congruent and so they have the same base and height hence the same area)

Area of the rectangle = length×breadth

=12 × 6 =72

Total surface area = addition of all the areas of the triangles and the rectangle

Total surface area= 48+48+57+57+72 = 225

Therefore, the total surface area is 225 square feet
