FG = FE
3n - 4 = n + 8
2n = 12
  n = 6

FG = 3(6) - 4
FG = 18 - 4
FG = 14

We can use similar triangles.  Since we have two right triangles that have two equal angles, that means all 3 angles are congruent.  

Thus triangle EDF is similar to GDF.

Then we can set up a proportion.

(3n-4)/(n+8) = DF/DF   (where DF is the length of they hypotenuse, but since they are the same length, DF/DF is just equal to 1.)

So:  (3n-4)/(n+8) = 1

Now just solve:  3n - 4 = n + 8

2n = 12

n = 6

Therefore FG = 3(6) - 4 = 18 - 4 = 14

FG = 14

A ball is thrown upward from the top of a building. The function below shows the height of the ball in relation to sea level, f(
Verizon [17]
For this case we have the following function:
 f (t) = -16t2 + 48t + 100
 The average rate of change is:
 (f (t2) - f (t1)) / (t2 - t1)
 We have then:
 For t1 = 3:
 f (3) = -16 * (3) ^ 2 + 48 * (3) + 100
 f (3) = 100
 For t2 = 5:
 f (5) = -16 * (5) ^ 2 + 48 * (5) + 100
 f (5) = -60
 Substituting values:
 AVR = (-60 - 100) / (5 - 3)
 AVR = -80
 Answer:
 
The average rate of change of f (t) from t = 3 seconds to t = 5 seconds is -80 feet per second.

She will keep 1/4

1/4 *48 = 12

She will keep 12 eggs

As a large truck fills its gas tank, the volume of gas, in gallons, can be modeled with the linear function v = 4.8m + 8.2, wher
jek_recluse [69]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the expression is

v = 4.8m + 8.2

where  v is the volume of gas and

            m is the number of minutes it has been filling.

Step two:

Required

<em>Asumming the volume is in Liters</em>

the interpretation of the terms in the expression for the volume

4.8 means that  for every minute 4.8L of gas enters the gas tank

hence the rate of filling is 4.8L/min

8.2 means that there is 8.2L of gas already in the tank before the filling started.
