A1 = 6 a5 = -6
a1 + d(n-1) = -6
6 +4d = -6
4d = -12
d = -3
a3 = a2 + d = -6 -3 = -9
The rate of change is also called the slope
the formula foe the rate of change is (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
x1 = -3
x2 = 6
y1 = 14
y2 = -1
rate of change = (-1 - 14) / (6- (-3)
= -15 / 9
= -5/3
Answer:
divide the figure into two parts.
area of triangle = 1/2×base×height
area of triangle = 1/2×3×3
area pf triangle = 4.5 units²
area of square = side²
area of square = 3²
area of square = 9unit²
