The table shows the height of water in a pool as it is being filled. A table showing Height of Water in a Pool with two columns

and six rows. The first column, Time in minutes, has the entries, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10. The second column, Height in inches, has the entries, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24. The slope of the line through the points is 2. Which statement describes how the slope relates to the height of the water in the pool? The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water decreases 2 inches per minute. The height of the water was 2 inches before any water was added. The height of the water will be 2 inches when the pool is filled.

Answer:

A) The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the rate of change of height

m = (16 - 12)/(4 - 2) = 4/2 = 2

2 inch per min

Positive slope implies increase

Your answer should be A- The height of the water increases 2 inches per minute.

You will subtract 12 from 16 which equals to 4 and divide it by 4-2 why is 2 and then you will have 4/2 and get a total of 2 inches per minute

A function f(x) is graphed on the coordinate plane.
Sidana [21]

Answer: y = - 4x + 2


Explanation:


The graph shows a linear function, which is a first degree polynomial, whose form is ax + b.


The rule or fucntion is f(x) = y = ax + b. This form is called the slope-intercept form, because the coefficient a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.


The graph permits you to calculate both parameters.


1) The slope, a is defined in this way:

  • a = rise / run = [change in y] / [change in x] = [y₂ -y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]
  • you can use the points (0, - 2) and (-1,2):

       ⇒ a = [ 2 - (-2) ] / [ -1 - 0 ] = 4 / (-1) = - 4

2) b, the y-intercept, is the value of the function, y, when x = 0. In the graph you can see that this is - 2. b =  - 2.


3) Substituting the values of a and b in the form y = ax + b, you the rule:

  • y = - 4x - 2

What is the area of the square adjacent to the third side of the triangle?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

85 units^2 = Area of Blue Square

and

x = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we use the Pythagorean theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2). a and b represent the legs of the triangle whereas c represents the longest side of the triangle, or the hypotenuse.

Since we know the area of a square is the side length multiplied by itself (or the side length squared), \sqrt{35} is the side length of the pink square and \sqrt{50} is the side length of the green square.

That means a = \sqrt{35} and b = \sqrt{50} , so...

(\sqrt{35} )^{2} + (\sqrt{50})^{2}  = c^{2}

35 + 50 = c^2

85 = c^2

\sqrt{85} = c

Now we need to square the square root of 85 to find the area of the blue square.

(\sqrt{85})^{2}  = Area of blue square

85 units^2 = Area of Blue Square

To solve the other question we use the same formula again.

x^2 + 12^2 = 13^2\\x^2 +144 = 169\\-144\\x^2 =  25\\x=\sqrt{25} \\x=5

x = 5 units
