Anna [14]3 years ago

Answer:

y = 8

x = 8√5

z = 4√5

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula (which is a geometric mean):

a        y

---- = -----

x        a

Where a is the altitude (y), x is a projection (16), and y is the other projection (4):

y        4

---- = -----

16       y

Cross multiply:

y² = 16 (4)

y² = 64

√y² = √64

y = 8

To find x and z, use the Pythagorean Theorem:

16² + y² = x²

256 + 8² = x²

256 + 64 = x²

320 = x²

√320 = √x²

√64√5 = √x²

8√5 = x

x = 8√5

4² + y² = z²

16 + 64 = z²

80 = z²

√80 = √z²

√16√5 = √z²

4√5 = z

z = 4√5

What is the rate of change of the linear function represented by the table? StartFraction one Over three EndFraction StartFracti
Lynna [10]

The rate of change of the linear function represented by the table is 3

<h3>Rate of change of a function</h3>

The rate of change of a function is also known as the slope of a function. The equation for calculating the slope is expressed as:

Slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

using the coordinates from the table (-2, -13) and (-1, -10)

Substitute

Slope = -10-(-13)/-1-(-2)

Slope = -10+13/-1+2

Slope =3

Hence the rate of change of the linear function represented by the table is 3
