Answer:

8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area (A) of a triangle = \frac{1}{2} × base (b) × height (h)

72 square inches = \frac{1}{2} × 18 × h

9h = 72

h = 8 inches

shutvik [7]

Answer:

A. y=-1.2x+59

B. 42.2 million

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given:

Newspapers circulated in year 2004, y_{1}=59\textrm{ million}

Newspapers circulated in year 2014, y_{2}=47\textrm{ million}

Let the time x start at the year 2004. So, x_{1}=0

For the year 2014, x_{2}=2014-2004=10

Therefore, linear relationship between newspapers circulated and time passed since 2004 is given as:

y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1})\\y-59=\frac{47-59}{10-0}(x-0)\\y-59=-\frac{12}{10}x\\y=-1.2x+59

Therefore, the equation describing the relationship is: y=-1.2x+59

Part B:

For the year 2018, x=2018-2004=14

Plug in 14 for x in the above equation and solve for y. This gives,

y=-1.2(14)+59\\y=-16.8+59\\y=42.2

Therefore, in the year 2018, the newspaper circulation will be 42.2 million.
