As they are similar triangles, one is simply going to be bigger than the other, meaning that if triangle T’s side QS is = 9 and triangle W’s corresponding side ZX is =6.5. When dividing 9 by 6.5, it is obvious that triangle W is 0.72 smaller than triangle T. All you then have to do to calculate length of side XY is times side QR on triangle T -cause it’s the corresponding side of these two triangles- by 0.72, and you’ll have your answer of XY= 8.125 :)

Answer:

(-0.5, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the midpoint add the coordinates then divide by 2

x = (2 + -1)/2

x = 1/2 = 0.5

y = (3 + -5)/2

y = -1

(-0.5, -1)

Your car's back window is in the shape of a trapezoid with the dimensions shown. The 1616-inch window wiper cleans a part of the

ExtremeBDS [4]

Semicircle area = circle area / 2 = (pi*r^2)/2 16 in is the radius. Let's call the area of this semicircle s. 3.14*16^2=s

Trapezoid area = ((base 1 + base 2) / 2) * h Here, base 1 is 44 and base 2 is 36. The height (h) is 20. Let's call this trapezoid's area t. (44+36)/2 *20 = t

We can remove the area of the semicircle (that created by the windshield wiper) by subtracting it from the area of the trapezoid. t - s = uncleaned area [(44+36)/2 * 20] - [3.14 * 16^2] = uncleaned area

I need help finding the y-intercept of these, I am no good with slope and tables. ;-;

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1. -4

2. 6

3. -6

(i hope this is right •_•)

Step-by-step explanation:

First table

When the x coordinate is 0, that point is your y intercept. For the first one, your y intercept is -4.

Second table

For the second one, we need to do a bit of counting. We can see the x coordinates go before and after zero, but the table does not show us 0. So, we're going to have to calculate the slope. Bear with me here, I'm a little tired and this might be rambling ;-;

So, the formula for calculating slope is $\frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ . I'm going to use those first two points to get my slope. We're going to say the first point is point 1 and the second point is point 2 (genius, i know lol). So, let's substitute in the x and y values.

$\frac{9-12}{-3-(-6)}$

And simplify...

$\frac{-3}{3}$

So, your slope is -1. We can use that. We just have to count down.

If the x is -2, the y is 8. If the x is -1, the y is 7. And if the x is 0....(drumroll please) the y is 6! So, your y intercept is 6.

Third table

Now, this table isn't very nice either and doesn't have an x as 0 for us. Hmpf. But we can still do what we did above. I'll just skip the explanation and you can observe my steps.

$\frac{-3-(-5)}{9-3}$
