Let f(x)=x2−3x−4 . What is the average rate of change from x = 7 to x = 10? Question 6 options: 24 14 66 42

1 answer:

8 0

Just find the slope between the points

basically find (f(10)-f(7))/(10-7)

f(7)=7^2-3(7)-4=49-21-4=24
f(10)=10^2-3(10)-4=100-30-4=66

slope=(66-24)/(10-7)=42/3=14
average rate of change is 14

An isosceles triangle’s altitude will bisect its base. Which expression could be used to find the area of the isosceles triangle

omeli [17]

Answer:

$\dfrac{\sqrt{40}\cdot \sqrt{40}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the base is the distance between the points 4+2i and 10+4i, so

$\text{Base}=|10+4i-(4+2i)|=|10+4i-4-2i|=|6+2i|=\sqrt{6^2+2^2}=\\ \\=\sqrt{36+4}=\sqrt{40}$

The middle point of the base is placed at point

$\dfrac{4+2i+10+4i}{2}=\dfrac{6i+14}{2}=7+3i$

The length of the height is the distance between the points 5+9i and 7+3i

$\text{Height}=|5+9i-(7+3i)|=|5+9i-7-3i|=|-2+6i|=\sqrt{(-2)^2+6^2}=\\ \\=\sqrt{4+36}=\sqrt{40}$

So, the area of the triangle is

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \text{Base}\cdot \text{Height}=\dfrac{\sqrt{40}\cdot \sqrt{40}}{2}$

Use long division to determine the decimal equivalent of fraction with numerator 2 and denominator 3. 0 point 6 bar 0 point 7 ba

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The correct answer is A

$0.\bar6$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the decimal equivalence of $\frac{2}{3}$ .

We perform the long division as shown in the attachment.

Note that in carry out the long division, the denominator which is 3, will be outside the long division sign, while the numerator which is $2$ , will be inside the long division sign.
