Answer

Because the base is equal to the area, (L*W). So essentially, they are the same equation!

Explanation:

We normally find the area when dealing with two-dimensional shapes, correct? So, when the shape becomes 3-dimensional, it now includes a base and a height! You multiply these together to get the volume (the amount of space it takes up).

If we were to add a height to a regular rectangle, what was once the entire shape, now becomes the base of a rectangular prism! The length and the width of that prism is equal to the base, which makes both equations equal to each other!

What are the key aspects of the graph of f(x) = x2 – b2, where b is a real number?

netineya [11]

Given equation is $f\left(x\right)=x^2-b^2$ .

Now we need to find about what are the key aspects of the graph of $f\left(x\right)=x^2-b^2$ , where b is a real number.

We know that square of any number is always positive.

then $b^2$ must be a positive number.

So that means for any real number b, as the value of b increases then graph of f(x) shifts downward by $b^2$ units as compared to the graph of parent function $f\left(x\right)=x^2$
