Answer:

15.33cm

Step-by-step explanation:

when you try to draw out this figure, satisfying the fact that Ad and Ac are both straight lines. you find the ultimately it forms a right-angled triangle with sides AC and AD and hypotenuse CD.

Now, you may use Pythagoras theorem to solve:

AC^2 + AD^2 = CD^2

12.3^2 + 9.15^2 = CD^2

CD^2 = 235.0125

CD = square root of 235.0125 = 15.33cm

Hope this helps

Answer:

$84

Step-by-step explanation:

720x30=21600

21600/100=216

216=markdown (as a number instead of a percentage)

Now subtract that like this

720-216=504

504= sale price

Then do this

504-420=84

Therefore it is $84

Answer:

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $=2x + h$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x)= x^2 + 2$

Required

Determine: $\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

First, we calculate f(x + h)

$f(x)= x^2 + 2$

$f(x+h) = (x+h)^2+2$

$f(x+h) = x^2+2xh+h^2+2$

So, we have:

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $= \frac{x^2 + 2xh + h^2 + 2 - x^2 - 2}{h}$

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $= \frac{x^2 - x^2+ 2xh + h^2 + 2 - 2}{h}$

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $= \frac{2xh + h^2}{h}$

$\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$ $=2x + h$
