Answer:
JL = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
The shorter segment is a midline, so is half the length of the longer one.
2(5x-16) = 4x +34
5x -16 = 2x +17 . . . . . divide by 2
3x = 33 . . . . . . . . . . add 16-2x
x = 11 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
Then segment JL is ...
JL = 4x +34 = 4(11) +34 = 44+34
JL = 78
The variable b represents the area of the base of the prism or pyramid. Hope that helps!
Replace the values of a and b in the formula
2a - b:
(2 * 1.235) - (-16.04) = 2.47 + 16.04 = 18.51
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
In this particular scenario, based on the numbers I would say that it does not make sense to represent this with a constant rate. That is because in a span of three years the change between each year is completely different, for example, between the first and second year there was a change of
9.75 - 8.50 = 1.25 dollar change
1.25 / 8.50 = 0.147 or a 14.7% increase
Between the second and third year, there was a change of
12 - 9.75 = 2.25 dollar change
2.25 / 9.75 = 0.23 or 23% increase
Therefore, each year the percent and dollar value increase is increasing more and more which would not be a constant rate.
