Step-by-step explanation:
<u> ASA Postulate (Angle-Side-Angle):</u>
If two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
Consider triangles XYB and ZYA. In these triangles
- ∠X≅∠Z (given)
- XY≅ZY (given)
- ∠Y is common angle
By ASA Postulate, triangles XYB and ZYA are congruent. Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, so
BX≅AZ
2 square 6 this is because 24 goes into 4 and 6 and 4 goes into 2 twice
The formula for the average value of a function is

where b is the upper bound and a is the lower. For us, this formula will be filled in accordingly.

. We will integrate that now:
![\frac{1}{2}[ \frac{2x^3}{3}+3x]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B%20%5Cfrac%7B2x%5E3%7D%7B3%7D%2B3x%5D%20%20)
from 0 to 2. Filling in our upper and lower bounds we have
![\frac{1}{2}[( \frac{2(2^3)}{3}+3(2))-0]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B%28%20%5Cfrac%7B2%282%5E3%29%7D%7B3%7D%2B3%282%29%29-0%5D%20%20)
which simplifies to

and

which is 17/3 or 5.667
Answer:
a)
b) 2012, 1049 stores. 2014, 1041 stores. c) Yes it is a downsizing company.
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
s=year | f(s) = number of stores per year
1 | 1078
4| 1067

s=1 in 2003

b) For 2012, s=9. For 2014, s=11

c) In deed. Since the function shows a decreasing amount of JC Penney stores. Maybe this is a downsizing from this company, progressively closing some stores.
