Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a right triangle with hypotenuse 10 and the height 8. Either the one on the left or the one on the right
We can find the base using the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 +8^2 = 10^2
a^2 +64 = 100
Subtract 64 from each side
a^2 = 100 -64
a^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
a = 6
Now a is 1/2 of the total base of the big triangle. It is identical since the triangles are equal
x = 2 * a
x = 2*6 = 12
Answer:
0.09
Step-by-step explanation:
avg rate of change is: change in y/ change in x
so it´d be 3.59 - 0.89 / 2014 - 1984
= 2.7/ 30
= 0.09
note:
The slope formula and the average rate of change formula are the same, just written a bit different, so you could also use:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
<span>Divide 16 by 34, then move the decimal point two places to the left.
