To find the rate of change find the difference in the Y values for every X value.
From X 1 to X 3 the Y value changes by -10
-10 / 2 = -5.
The rate of change is -5.
The initial value is when X = 0
When X is 1, the Y value is 20, using the rate of change of -5, this means when X is 0, the Y value would be 25.
The answer would be, the initial value is 25, rate of change is -5
Answer:
a = 14.19 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The area of a square shaped yard is 201.5 ft²
We need to find the side length of this yard in feet.
The area of a square shaped object is given by :
A = a², a is the side length of the object
Put A = 201.5 ft² in above formula,

So, the side of the square yard is 14.19 feet.
