Video rental stores are being replaced by streaming subscriptions. In one area, there were 10 video rental locations in 1996, bu

t by 2016, that number had dwindled to 1. Assuming a constant decrease in the number of stores, calculate the unit rate of change (slope) from 1996 to 2016.

Answer:

The unit rate is -1 store per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of years since 1996

y ----> the number of video rental stores

we know that

The year 1996 represent x=0

so

2016 represent ----> x=2016-1996=10 years

we have the points

(0,10) and (10,1)

The unit rate is equal to the slope of the linear equation

<em>Find the slope m</em>

m=(1-10)/(10-0)

m=-1\ stores/year ----> is negative because is a decreasing function

therefore

The unit rate is -1 store per year

PLEASE HELP ME IM LOST! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!! ABC has vertices A(0,6) B(4,6) C(1,3). Sketch a graph of ABC and use it to find
Paul [167]
The orthocenter is the point where the three altitudes meet.
sketch the graph and you will see that AB is a horizontal line, the altitude is a vertical line through the point (1,3), so the equation of this altitude is x=1

next, find another altitude. I'll use the altitude of BC.
the slope of BC is (6-3)/(4-1)=1, so the slope of the altitude, which is perpendicular to BC going through the point A (0,6), is -1, the equation of the altitude of BC is y=-x+6
the system of equation : x=1
                                       y=-x+6
has a solution (1, 5)
the solution is where the two lines meet, the meeting point is the orthocenter. 

Double check by find the equation for other altitude:
slope of AC: (3-6)/(1-0)=-3
slope of altitude of AC: 1/3
equation of altitude of AC: y=(1/3)x+b
the altitude of AC goes through point B (4,6), so we can find out b by plug x=4, y=6 in the equation: 6=(1/3)*4+b, b=14/3
y=(1/3)x+14/3
Is (1,5) also a solution to this equation? Plug x=1 in the equation, we get y=5, so yes, (1,5) is a point on the third altitude.

If the angles are in the ratio 2:7:11 then find the angles
german

Answer: 180 is the sum of the tringles


Step-by-step explanation:

2x+7x+11x=180

20x=180

x=9

Now you should put the the value of x to get the angles

2x=2x9=18

7x=7x9=63

11x=11x9=99

Now to double check add all of them together

99+18+63=180

Hoped I helped!
