Answer:

B)  8

Step-by-step explanation:

a regular hexagon with side length 12 and radius 10.

 the length of the apothem

to get the length of the apothem, use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²

let a = 6, b = apothem, c = 10

plugin values into the formula

6² + b² = 10²

b² = 10² - 6²

b =  √(100 - 64)

b = 8

Answer:

the length of the apothem is 8, option B

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

a regular hexagon with side length 12 and radius 10.

find;

the length of the apothem

referring to the attached image,

to get the length of the apothem, use the Pythagorean theorem.

a² + b² = c²

let a = 6, b = apothem, c = 10

plugin values into the formula

6² + b² = 10²

b² = 10² - 6²

b = \sqrt{100 - 36}

b = \sqrt{64}

b = 8

therefore,

the length of the apothem is 8, option B

The segments shown below could form a triangle ac=9. cb=8. ba=17
krek1111 [17]
The lengths of sides of a triangle have to satisfy the triangle inequality, which states that the sum of the two shorter sides must exceed the length of the third side.

Here 9+8=17 (not greater), so these segments do not form a triangle.

Question 2 (Essay Worth 10 points)
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Account A: Decreasing at 8 % per year

Account B: Decreasing at 10.00 % per year

Account B shows the greater percentage change

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Percent change from exponential formula

f(x) = 9628(0.92)ˣ

The general formula for an exponential function is

y = ab^x, where

b = the base of the exponential function.

if b < 1, we have an exponential decay function.

ƒ(x) decreases as x increases.

Account A is decreasing each year.

We can rewrite the formula for an exponential decay function as:

y = a(1 – b)ˣ, where

1 – b = the decay factor

b = the percent change in decimal form

If we compare the two formulas, we find

0.92 = 1 - b

b = 1 - 0.92 = 0.08 = 8 %

The account is decreasing at an annual rate of 8 %.The account is decreasing at an annual rate of 10.00 %.

Account B recorded a greater percentage change in the amount of money over the previous year.
