Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangles ΔABC and ΔBAD are congruent. So,

AB ≅ BA;
AC ≅ BD;
BC ≅ AD;
∠ABC ≅ ∠BAD;
∠BCA ≅ ∠ADB;
∠CAB ≅ ∠DBA.

Consider triangles AEC and BED. In these triangles,

AC ≅ BD;
∠EAC ≅ ∠EBD (because ∠CBA ≅ ∠BAD);
∠AEC ≅ ∠BED (as vertical angles).

So, ΔAEC ≅ ΔBED. Thus,

AE ≅ EB.

This means that segment CD bisects segment AD.

If you have a balance of $270 in your bank account each month you deposit $45 let January=1 February=2 and so on. Write any equa

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$540

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the initial balance in the bank account is $270.

We are then told that every month $45 is added to the account.

To find the equation that tells us the balance at any point in time assuming no interest is added or money is taken out, we can first understand the constant, y=270.

This gives us the initial value of the balance and any changes to the balance will start from this point.

Let x be the time in months.

if we let y=270 + 45x, we find the value of the function accounting for the addition of money every month.

Assuming money is put in during January; substituting the number of months as x=6 (since it is June), we can find the balance in June.

y=270 +45(6)=540

Hence, the balance in June is $540

The function LaTeX: f\left(x\right)=-x^2+4f ( x ) = − x 2 + 4 defined on the interval LaTeX: -8\le x\le8− 8 ≤ x ≤ 8 is increasin

enyata [817]

Given:

The function is

$f(x)=-x^2+4$

It defined on the interval -8 ≤ x ≤ 8.

To find:

The intervals on which the function is increasing and the interval on which decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

$f(x)=-x^2+4$

Differentiate with respect to x.

$f'(x)=-(2x)+(0)$

$f'(x)=-2x$

For turning point f'(x)=0.

$-2x=0$

$x=0$

Now, 0 divides the interval -8 ≤ x ≤ 8 in two parts [-8,0] and [0,8]

For interval [-8,0], f'(x)>0, it means increasing.

For interval [0,8], f'(x)<0, it means decreasing.

Therefore, the function is increasing on the interval [-8,0] and decreasing on the interval [0,8].

Answer:

49.6

Step-by-step explanation:

A = πr2, (Pi r-squared)

A = (3.14)(8)2

A = (3.14) (64)

A = 198.4

but you need to take 1/4th of that since you are only looking at 1/4th of the circle so,

.25 x 198.4 = 49.6
