Answer:

Part 1) The rate of change is $\frac{17}{15}$

Part 2) The initial value is 68

Part 3) The function rule to the linear model is $y=\frac{17}{15}x+68$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope or unit rate

b is the y-intercept or initial value

step 1

Find the slope

take two points from the table

(0,68) and (15,85)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{85-68}{15-0}$

$m=\frac{17}{15}$

In a linear function , the slope is the same that the rate of change

therefore

The rate of change is $\frac{17}{15}$

step 2

Find the y-intercept

we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

Looking at the table

For x=0, y=68

therefore

The y-intercept is

$b=68$

The y-intercept is also called the initial value

therefore

The initial value is 68

step 3

Determine the function rule to the linear model

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=\frac{17}{15}$

$b=68$

substitute

$y=\frac{17}{15}x+68$

The diagram below shows a shaded parallelogram drawn inside a rectangle. Using Pythagoras, find the hypotenuse of triangle A and

Julli [10]

Answer: 5.9 cm for both triangles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms 2 right triangles we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

Where c is the hypotenuse of a triangle (the longest side of the triangle) and a and b are the other sides.

Replacing with the values given:

c^2 = 3^2 + 5^2

c^2 = 9+25

c^2 = 34

c = √34

c = 5.9 cm

Since both triangles are identical ( same side lengths) the hypotenuse is the same for both, 5.9 cm.

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

I can’t figure out, can someone please explain how to get the correct answer?

Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) CD = 9

b) AB = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

In this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. This means The ratio of short side to long side is the same for all of the triangles.

You are given the short and long sides of ΔADB, and the long side of ΔCDA. You are asked for the short side of ΔCDA, so you can write the proportion ...

CD/AD = AD/BD

CD/12 = 12/16

CD = 12(12/16)

CD = 9

__

There are a couple of options for finding AD. One you may be familiar with is the Pythagorean theorem.

AB² = AD² +DB²

AB² = 12² +16² = 144 +256 = 400 . . . . fill in known values

AB = √400 = 20 . . . . . take the square root

__

Alternatively, you can use the same proportional relationship that is described above. Here, we make use of the ratio of the hypotenuse to the long side.

AB/BD = CB/AB

AB² = BD·CB = 16·(16+9) = 16·25 . . . . cross multiply; fill in known values

AB = √(16·25) = 4·5 . . . . . take the square root

AB = 20

<em>Additional comment</em>

This geometry, where the altitude of a right triangle is drawn, has some interesting properties. We have hinted at them above.

You can write three sets of proportions for this geometry: the ratios of short side and long side; the ratios of short side and hypotenuse; and the ratios of long side and hypotenuse. When you look at the way the sides touching the longest hypotenuse relate to that hypotenuse, you see three similar relations:

AC = √(CD·CB)

AD = √(DC·DB)

AB = √(BD·BC) . . . . . . . . the relation used in part (b) above

This "square root of a product" is called the <em>geometric mean</em>. In effect, the length of a side touching the longest hypotenuse is the geometric mean of the two segments of that hypotenuse that it touches.
