Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Absolute Change = final change in 2017 sales - initial change in 2016 sales = $847,000,000 - $885,100,000 = 38,100,000
Relative Change = (Final - Initial change)/initial change x 100% = 38,100,000/885,100,00 x 100% = 381/8851 x 100% = 0.0430459835 x 100% = 4.30%
Short leg = ?
Long leg = 1/2x + 11
Hypotenuse = 2x + 1
For this you'd need to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the short leg.
Pythagorean Theorem - a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4,390 is the answer
I hope I helped!
You need to solve for x or y in one equation and and substitute it into the other equation in place of the variable that corresponds to it.
