<u>Examining the question:</u>
We are given the expression:

We know from Basic trigonometry that:


<u>Simplifying the expression:</u>
Replacing these values in the given expression, we get:

Since the denominator of both the values in the denominator is the same:

We know that
=
, using the same property:

and we are done!
A.) Rate of change = (1350 - 750) / (2010 - 2000) = 600/10 = $60
The initial value is the amount he charged in his first year of business which is $750.
B.) Required equation is given by y - 750 = 60x
y = 60x + 750 where x represent the number of years after 2000.
Answer:
x = 200/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply Thales theorem, we have:
80/(2x) = 60/27
Let's simplify both sides:
40/x = 20/9
or
x/40 = 9/20
Multiplying both sides by 40, we have:
(40/40)x = (20/9)*40
Let's simplify one more time:
x = (20*40)/(9)
or
x = 200/3
Hope this helps!
The answer is B. And I am not that sure about my answer, but it has to be the correct answer for what you put. THANK YOU!!!!
