please help, answer will get brainliest!!! The formula for the area of a triangle is A = one-half b h. Hiro is solving the equat

ion for h; his work is shown below. What mistake did Hiro make? A = one-half b h. 2 times A = 2 times (one-half b h). 2 A = b h. 2 A minus b = h. Hiro should have divided both sides of the equation by 2. Hiro should have divided both sides of the equation by b. Hiro should have added b to both sides of the equation. Hiro should have subtracted 2 from both sides of the equation.

Answer:

Hiro should have divided both sides of the equation by b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the formula for area of a triangle (A) = ½bh, Hiro was expected to solve for h.

To find out where Hiro made a mistake, let's solve for h step by step as it ought to be solved.

Thus,

A = ½ bh

==>Multiply both sides by 2:

2*A = 2 * [½bh]

2A = bh

==>Divide both sides by b:

(2A)/b = (bh)/b

(2A)/b = h

h = (2A)/b

The mistake Hiro made was that he subtracted b from both sides of the equation instead if dividing both sides by b.

Hiro should have divided both sides of the equation by b

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x)=5(2)^x from x = 1 to x = 5?
Mila [183]
Average rate of change refers to the slope of a function/equation. 
To solve this, plug in for both x values and calculate the average, or mean. 

x = 1 
f(1) = 5(2)^1 
      = 5(2) 
      = 10

x = 5 
f(5) = 5(2)^5
      = 5(32) 
      = 160

Now, you calculate the average: 
10 + 160 = 170 
Divide by 2 and you get 85.

Answer:

f(x+1)=(5/6)f(x)on:          Five-sixths Superscript f (x)

EXPLANATION:

The defining characteristic of a geometric sequence is that each term is a constant multiple of the previous term, called the common ratio denoted r in the rules for geometric equations.

625/750=750/900=etc=r=5/6

I NEED HELPPP<br><br> Whats the length of LN?
andre [41]

Answer:

LN = 66 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 parallel lines divide the 2 sides they intersect in proportion, that is

\frac{DE}{EF} = \frac{LM}{MN} , substitute values

\frac{7}{15} = \frac{LM}{45} ( cross- multiply )

15LM = 315 ( divide both sides by 15 )

LM = 21

Hence

LN = LM + MN =  21 + 45 = 66 cm
