Answer: 12.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following details :

DAC = 90° and ABC = 90° = right angled

Segment AB is Parallel to segment DC

FROM THE DETAILS ;

Triangle ABC and ACD are similar triangles.

Length AC = 7 Units

Length AB = 4 Units

For similar triangles :

Segment CD /AC = Segment AC / AB

CD / 7 = 7 / 4

Cross multiply

CD × 4 = 7 × 7

CD × 4 = 49

CD = 49 / 4

CD = 12.25 Units

Write a function equation that represents a line that contains the two points (-3, 5) and (2, 10).
Eva8 [605]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1st of all calculate the gradient

( - 3, 5) ( 2, 10)

Gradient = (10 - 5) / ( 2--3)

= 1

2. Then find the eq

Y = mx + c

Where m is the gradient

y= 1x + c

Now replace any 2 coordinates from above in the eq.

For ex I'm taking (2, 10)

Y = 1x + c

In the coordinate, x = 2 and y =10

By replacing this in the eq, I will find c

10 = 1(2) + c

2 + c = 10

c = 10 - 2

= 8

So the eq is y = x + 8 ⬅️

Ben is taking a typing class, and the following line graph represents the number of words per minute he was able to type each we
Crank
During week 2, he could type 15 words per minute, at his fourth week, he could type 30. So 30-15=15. He could type 15 words faster on week 4 than he could at week 2.
