Answer I think A
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>1.Write an equation in slope- intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation. (2,-2);y=-x-2
D.y=-x
2.Write an equation in slope- intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation. (2,-1);y=-3/2x-6
C.y=-3/2x+2
3.Write an equation in slope- intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation. (4,2);x=-3
D.y=4
4.Write an equation in slope- intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the graph of the given equation. (-2,3);y=1/2x-1
B.y=-2x-1
5.Write an equation in slope- intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the graph of the given equation. (5,0);y+1=2(x-3)
D.y=-1/2x+5/2</span>
1] Given that the value of x has been modeled by f(x)=12500(0.87)^x, then:
the rate of change between years 1 and 5 will be:
rate of change is given by:
[f(b)-f(a)]/(b-a)
thus:
f(1)=12500(0.87)^1=10875
f(5)=12500(0.87)^5=6230.3
rate of change will be:
(6230.3-10875)/(5-1)
=-1161.2
rate of change in years 11 to 15 will be:
f(11)=12500(0.87)^11=2701.6
f(15)=12500(0.87)^15=1,547.74
thus the rate of change will be:
(1547.74-2701.6)/(15-11)
=-288
dividing the two rates of change we get:
-288/-1161.2
-=1/4
comparing the two rate of change we conclude that:
The average rate of change between years 11 and 15 is about 1/4 the rate between years 1 and 5.
The answer is D]
2] Given that the population of beavers decreases exponentially at the rate of 7.5% per year, the monthly rate will be:
monthly rate=(n/12)
where n is the number of months
=7.5/12
=0.625
This is approximately equal to 0.65%. The correct answer is A. 0.65%
Answer:
The area of the triangle is 10.92 cm².
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a triangle is

where b is the length of the base and h is the height. We know that b = 2.8 and h = 7.8, so you would substitute into the formula:
cm²
