<h3>
Answer: Choice A. 82 websites per year</h3>
=============================================================
How I got that answer:
We have gone from 54 websites to 793 websites. This is a change of 793-54 = 739 new websites. This is over a timespan of 2004-1995 = 9 years.
Since we have 739 new websites over the course of 9 years, this means the rate of change is 739/9 = 82.1111... where the '1's go on forever. Rounding to the nearest whole number gets us roughly 82 websites a year.

You could use the slope formula to get the job done. This is because the slope represents the rise over run
slope = rise/run
The rise is how much the number of websites have gone up or down. The run is the amount of time that has passed by. So slope = rise/run = 739/9 = 82.111...
In a more written out way, the steps would be
slope = rise/run
slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
slope = (793 - 54)/(2004 - 1995)
slope = 739/9
slope = 82.111....
She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
To find the lateral area you will find the area of all 4 faces that are perpendicular to the base.
You will multiply the side by the length (front/back) and the side by the width (sides).
12 x 8 = 96
12 x 2 = 24
120 square inches x 2 = 240 square inches
The lateral area is 240 square inches.
The area of the base is 8 x 2 = 16 square inches.
16 x 2 = 32 square inches
240 square inches + 32 square inches = 272 square inches is the surface area.
Unsure of what you are asking!
But if the issue here is how to define a line segment, write what you do know and then reconsider "undefined terms."
A line segment is a straight line that connects a given starting point and given ending point.
If you consider a circle of radius 3 units, the radius can be thought of as the line segment connecting the center of the circle to any point on the circumference of the circle.
If the center of a given circle is at C(0,0) and a point on the circumference is given by R(3sqrt(2),3sqrt(2)), then AC is the line segment joining these two points. This line segment has length 3 and is in the first quadrant, with coordinates x=3sqrt(2) and y=3sqrt(2) describing the end point of the segment.
