Answer:

Since length and width are perpendicular, Doubling either one will double the area. So Doubling both will quadruple the area. 2x2 = 4.

This idea works if the dimensions doubled are those that are used to compute area. Like the base and height of a triangle.

More generally, in a polygon, if all the sides are doubled, the area is multiplied by 4. In a circle, Doubling the radius will quadruple the area.

In 3 dimensions, Doubling one dimension will double the VOLUME. Doubling two perpendicular dimensions will quadruple the volume and Doubling 3 perpendicular dimensions will multiply the volume by 2x2x2 or 8.

Let f be a linear function such that f(2) =5 and f(6) = -1. find an equation for f(x).

astra-53 [7]

Using f(x) = y, we know that a graph of the function contains the (x,y) points (2,5) and (6,-1). first find the slope of that line,
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) ⇒ -6/4⇒-3/2

then using either point (I'll use the first one) solve for b in y = mx + b.
5 = (-3/2)(2) + b⇒ 5 = -3 + b⇒ 8 = b.

So y = (-3/2)x + 8 ⇒ f(x) = (-3/2)x + 8.

9 is the geometric mean between 4 and which other number?

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer is A. 20.25

cause 20.25 x 9 = 81
√81 = 9
so 9 is the geometric mean <span>between 4 and 20.25</span>
