Use geometry words to describe a way to separate triangles into other triangles

You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.

It is given that y varies inversely as x^2. If x is decreased by 50%, find the percentage change in y.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

300%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{x^2}

Required

Find the percentage change in y when x decreased by 50%

First, convert to equation

y\ = \ \frac{k}{x^2}

Where k is the constant of proportionality

When x decreased by 50%

Y = \frac{k}{(x - 0.5x)^2}

Y = \frac{k}{(0.5x)^2}

Y = \frac{k}{0.25x^2}

Expand

Y = \frac{1}{0.25} * \frac{k}{x^2}

Substitute \frac{k}{x^2} for y

Y = \frac{1}{0.25} * y

Y = 4 * y

Y = 4 y

The percentage change is then calculated as:

\%Change = \frac{Y - y}{y} * 100\%

\%Change = \frac{4y - y}{y} * 100\%

\%Change = \frac{3y}{y} * 100\%

\%Change = 3 * 100\%

\%Change = 300\%

<em>The percentage in y is 300%</em>

Jacob drove 8 miles east and then 15 miles north. how far is he from his starting point
Ilya [14]

Answer:

he is 23 miles northeast from this starting spot

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so you start with the directions and notice they are different but this equation worked in our favor because the directions are north and east then all you do is add 8 + 15 and you get 23 so its 23 miles northeast from starting position
