Let x = the shorter piece and Let y = the longer piece. 

(3/4)x = 120 

x = 120 / (3/4) 

x = 120 * (4/3 = 480/3) = 160 feet 

y = 160 + 12

What is the average rate of change of f(x), represented by the graph, over the interval [-2, 2]?
Molodets [167]
To get the average rate of change (ARC) of f(x) over [x1, x2], we use the formula:
ARC = ( f(x2) - f(x2) ) / (x2 - x1)

From the graph
f(2) = 4
f(-2) = 4

Plugging in the values into the formula:
ARC = (4 - 4) / (2 - (-2) )
ARC = 0

The points connecting (-2,4) amd (2,4) is a horizontal line that is the rate of change is 0.

Ann paid $5.20 in sales tax for an $80 purchase. What percent sales tax
Doss [256]

Answer:

$22.84

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax is calculated by 0.075 * 21.25 = 1.59375 or $1.59. So the total bill is the cost of items purchased plus tax, which is $21.25 + $1.59 = $22.84.

So.

Let's get started with formulas.

I KNOW you hate formulas!! So do I, but we have to use them. No "buts". 
.
So, how many minutes are in 2 weeks?
.
Search it up. For your convenience, it is 20,160 minutes.

Well, I think you have your answer, since each quiz is 5 minutes, 5 times 50 (5 x 50) is 2,500 minutes.
.
Yes, you can do 50 quizzes and MUCH MUCH more in 2 weeks.

Hope I helped!!
