You know a1.
So find a2, a3, and so on until a7.
a(1) = 12
a(2) = 16
a(3) = 20
a(4) = 24
a(5) = 28
a(6) = 32
a(7) = 36
Each is 4 more than the previous.
K is the slope of the line formed by connecting the points.
Use slope formula:

where the 2 points are the end points of the line (First and last going Left to right)

Substitute into slope formula

You can check if this is correct by going back to graph and going "up 7" and "over 2" to get from one point to the next.
Answer:
How many hours?
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer to this is 2x
X is the number of hours and you multipy it by 2 wood
Answer:
26.75
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways to do this. You can use the base*height/2 formula for the area of the triangle, or use the complex formula of determining triangle area without height.
The first is A=(b*h)/2
In this case you need to find the height using a²+b²=c²
Take your base (7.6) and divide it by 2 this will give you the bottom side of your triangle (3.8) now plug this, and the side value of 8 into the formula. Remember c is the hypotenuse (diagonal side) and x is the height.
3.8²+x²=8²
14.44+x²=64
x²=49.56
x=7.039 -now you have the height for the triangle and can use this to find the area
A=b*h (in this case we dont have to divide by two since we need two triangles because we split the original in two to find the base of 3.8)
so it's 3.8*7.039=26.75
(If you need more help look up Silicon Valley High school's video titled, "How to find the area of a triangle (without the height)"
It will teach you the formula
which teaches you to find the area of any triangle when all you are given is three sides
9a-27b you must multiply 9 to everything
