If you're trying to find the missing side of the "triangle" (the distance from the house to where the ladder touches the ground), you would use the pythagorean theorem, a²+b²=c². (c is always hypotenuse)
a²+b²=c²
12²+b²=15²
144+b²=225
b²=81
√b²=√81
b=9
Answer:
y=1/2x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations come in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept. Looking at the graph we know that the y-intercept is (0,2), so that rules out options B and C.
To find the gradient is a little more tricky, but we can follow the formula:
, where rise is the vertical value and run is the horizontal value
So we sub in our values:
And simplify:
So now we sub in our new found values into y=mx+c:
y=1/2x+2
You have the starting price of $1.99. To get the increased price, divide 1.99 by .56 (.56 is the decimal form of 56%). You would get $3.55. This is for the year 2007. So for 2008, divide 3.55 by .42. The answer is $8.45. You can check the answers by multiplying the answers you go the the percentage. Ex. 8.45* .42=3.55 (rounded)
