Answer:
A. -⁹/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Using any two pairs of values form the table, say (-12, 60) and (-6, 33),
Rate of change = ∆y/∆x
= (33 - 60) / (-6 -(-12))
= -27/6
= -9/2
Rate of change = -⁹/2

Answer:
um I did this in my head but -20/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-6/5N × -5/6= 8× -5/6
simplify
n= 4/1× -5/3
n= -20/3

Answer:
72
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are said to be similar. (ΔNPQ ~ ΔRSQ) That means corresponding sides have the same ratio:
NP/RS = NQ/RQ = PQ/SQ = 24/32 = 21/28 = 3/4
This ratio, or scale factor, also applies to the perimeters of the two triangles.
perimeter NPQ / perimeter RSQ = 3/4
Using the given expressions for the perimeters, we have ...
(7x +2)/(10x -4) = 3/4
We can solve this equation in the usual way to find the value of x. Then we can use that value to find the perimeter of ΔNPQ.
4(7x +2) = 3(10x -4) . . . . . multiply both sides by 4(10x -4)
28x +8 = 30x -12 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
20 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . add 12-28x to both sides
10 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 10
The perimeter of ΔNPQ is ...
7x +2 = 7(10) +2 = 72
The perimeter of triangle NPQ is 72 units.
Answer:
B) 6
Step-by-step explanation:
3(6) + 8 = 26
18 + 8 = 26
26 = 26
I don't know that method they are referring to. Seems pointless.
Typically, you would just set that equation up like:
3n + 8 = 26
- 8 -8
3n = 18
3n/3 = 18/3
n = 6
