300=xy and 363=(xr)(yr)=xyr^2  so

363/300=xyr^2/(xy)

1.21=r^2

r=1.1

So the dimensions were increased by 10%

Alexus [3.1K]
By the Pythagorean theorem,
.. x^2 +(x -46)^2 = (x +4)^2
.. 2x^2 -92x +2116 = x^2 +8x +16
.. x^2 -100x +2100 = 0
.. (x -50)^2 -400 = 0
.. x = 50 ±20 . . . . . only x=70 makes any sense in the problem

The height, x, of the tree is 70 meters.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The percentage decrease is -33.93%

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we check if there is an increase or decrease

Since we went from 5.5 million to 3.7 million, that is a decrease

Percentage decrease = (3.7 - 5.6)/5.6 * 100%

= -1.9/5.6 * 100% = -33.93%

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (-5, 19) and (5.13).
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

y=-3/5x+16

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(13-19)/(5-(-5))

m=-6/(5+5)

m=-6/10

simplify

m=-3/5

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-19=-3/5(x-(-5))

y-19=-3/5(x+5)

y=-3/5x-15/5+19

y=-3/5x-3+19

y=-3/5x+16
