9514 1404 393

Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

y is the geometric mean of the segment lengths.

  y = √(4·1)

  y = 2

_____

You can also get there by considering the similarity of the triangles:

  short side / long side = y/4 = 1/y

  y^2 = 4 . . . . . . . multiply by 4y\

  y = √4 = 2 . . . . take the square root

A prediction from a line graph is
timurjin [86]
“Line graphs are useful in that they show data variables and trends very clearly and can help to make predictions about the results of data not yet recorded. They can also be used to display several dependent variables against one independent variable.”

“With a line graph, it is fairly easy to make predictions because line graphs show changes over a period of time. You can look at past performance in a line graph and make a prediction about future performance.”

(5a^2+6a+2)-(7a^2-7a-5)
krok68 [10]

For this case we must simplify the following expression:(5a^ 2 + 6a + 2) - (7a^ 2-7a-5) =

We eliminate the parentheses taking into account that:

- * + = -\\- * - = +

So:

5a ^ 2 + 6a + 2-7a ^ 2 + 7a + 5 =

We add similar terms taking into account that:

Equal signs are added and the same sign is placed.

Different signs are subtracted and the major sign is placed.

5a ^ 2-7a^2 + 6a + 7a +2 +5 =\\-2a ^ 2 + 13a + 7

Answer:

-2a ^ 2 + 13a + 7
