How do you find the rate of change on a graph

Mathematics

erastova [34]2 years ago

The rate of change of a graphed function is the ratio of the change in the ordinate value to the change in the abscissa value between two points. When the plot has y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis, the rate of change is
.. (change in y)/(change in x)

When the plot is of a straight line, you find the rate of change by locating two points on that line whose coordinates you can read from the graph. Then subtract the y-value of the first from that of the second to get the change ∆y. Do the same for the x-values: subtract the first from the second to get ∆x. The "rate of change" between the points you selected is
.. rate of change = (∆y)/(∆x)

If the plot goes upward from left to right, the rate of change is positive. If it goes downward left to right, the rate of change is negative.

The area of room is 812 square feet, cost of carpet to cover the room is $6739.6 and the remaining square feet of carpet are covered by furniture is 203 square feet.

<h3>What is the area of trapezoid?</h3>

The area of the trapezoid is the space occupied by it on the two dimensional plane. The area of this figure is half of the product of height and sum of sides.

A=\dfrac{(a+b)h}{2}

Here, (a and b) are the base sides of the trapezoid and (h) is the height.

A room is shaped like a trapezoid which has the height of 28 feet and the length of sides as 23 ft and 35 ft. Thus, the area of it is,

A=\dfrac{(a+b)h}{2}\\A=\dfrac{(23+35)28}{2}\\A=812\rm\; ft^2

Carpet costs $8.30 per square foot. Thus, the cost of carpet with area 812 ft² is,

C=812×$8.30

C=$6739.6

Furniture covers 25% of the floor. Thus, the remaining square feet of carpet are covered by furniture is,

A=\dfrac{25}{100}\times812\\A=203\rm\; ft^2

Thus, the area of room is 812 square feet, cost of carpet to cover the room is $6739.6 and the remaining square feet of carpet are covered by furniture is 203 square feet.

If using the method of completing the square to solve the quadratic equation x^2-10x-13=0, which number would have to be added t
Maru [420]

Answer: The solution to the problem is based on the solutions

from the subproblems.

x = {8.464101615, 1.535898385}

Step-by-step explanation:  

x^2-10x+13=0

Simplifying

x2 + -10x + 13 = 0

Reorder the terms:

13 + -10x + x2 = 0

Solving

13 + -10x + x2 = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Begin completing the square.

Move the constant term to the right:

Add '-13' to each side of the equation.

13 + -10x + -13 + x2 = 0 + -13

Reorder the terms:

13 + -13 + -10x + x2 = 0 + -13

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0

0 + -10x + x2 = 0 + -13

-10x + x2 = 0 + -13

Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13

-10x + x2 = -13

The x term is -10x.  Take half its coefficient (-5).

Square it (25) and add it to both sides.

Add '25' to each side of the equation.

-10x + 25 + x2 = -13 + 25

Reorder the terms:

25 + -10x + x2 = -13 + 25

Combine like terms: -13 + 25 = 12

25 + -10x + x2 = 12

Factor a perfect square on the left side:

(x + -5)(x + -5) = 12

Calculate the square root of the right side: 3.464101615

Break this problem into two subproblems by setting  

(x + -5) equal to 3.464101615 and -3.464101615.
