Answer:
The constant rate of change is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x y
2 6
4 12
6 18
8 24
Required
Determine the constant rate of change
Represent the constant rate of change with k.
k is calculated using:
When y = 24; x = 8
So, we have:
No, the work is correct, but the interpretation is not. “6 is less than or equal to h<span>” means that h is greater than or equal to 6. He must grow at least 6 inches, not at most 6 inches.</span>
J/9=5
Multiply both sides by 9
Which gets you
j = 45
Use Pythagorean Theorem:
a² + b² = c²
"a" is one side of the right triangle.
Its length is: radius of larger circle minus radius of smaller circle: (11 - 3 = 8)
The distance between the center of the circles creates the hypotenuse (17)
8² + b² = 17²
b² = 225
b = 15
Answer: the length of the common external tangent is 15.
