They are actually asking for 1.5 and -2 so the answer will be coordinated at approximately half past 1 and on -2 which is located on the right lower quadrant
You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21
Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:
... AC/AD = AB/AC
... AB = AC²/AD
... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle
_____
Then the area (A) is ...
... A = (1/2)bh
... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units
_____
As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...
... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB
You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.
216 divided by 3 is 72 so making the answer
1/72
First of all, a positive average rate of change means that the function is increasing, so the answer can only be A->B or B->C.
The average rate of change is defined as

i.e. as the ratio between the vertical and horizontal gain.
In order to go from point A to point B, you gain 1 unit horizontally and 5 units vertically. So, the average rate of change is 5/1=5.
In order to go from point B to point C, you gain 1 unit horizontally and 3 units vertically. So, the average rate of change is 3/1=3.
Answer:
Option b is correct (8,13).
Step-by-step explanation:
7x - 4y = 4
10x - 6y =2
it can be represented in matrix form as![\left[\begin{array}{cc}7&-4\\10&-6\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}x\\y\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c}4\\2\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bcc%7D7%26-4%5C%5C10%26-6%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D%20%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bc%7D4%5C%5C2%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)

i.e, AX=B
or X= A⁻¹ B
A⁻¹ = 1/|A| * Adj A
determinant of A = |A|= (7*-6) - (-4*10)
= (-42)-(-40)
= (-42) + 40 = -2
so, |A| = -2
Adj A=
A⁻¹ =

x= 8, y= 13
solution set= (8,13).
Option b is correct.
