Answer:

- 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here [ a, b ] = [ 2, 6 ] , then

f(b) = f(6) = - 6² + 2(6) + 2 = - 36 + 12 + 2 = - 22

f(a) = f(2) = - 2² + 2(2) + 2 = - 4 + 4 + 2 = 2 , then

average rate of change = \frac{-22-2}{6-2} = \frac{-24}{4} = - 6

The area of trapezoid TRAP is 100 m squared
Anastasy [175]
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .
______________________________________________
Explanation:
____________________

Area of a trapezoid, "A" = (1/2) ( b₁ + b₂) h ;
______________________________________________
or, write as:  A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2 ;
___________________________________
in which:  A = area;
              b₁ = length of "base 1" (choose either one of the 2 (two bases);
              b₂ = length of "base 2" (use the base that is remaining);
              h = height of trapezoid;
____________________________________________
From the information given: 
___________________________
A = 100 m² ; 
h = 5 m
b₁ = 10 m
b₂ =  x 
___________________________
Find "x", which is:  "b₂" ;
__________________________
      A = ( b₁ + b₂) h  / 2  ;
_____________________________
Plug in our known values; and plug in "x" for "b₂" ; and solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
  100 m² = [(10m + x) (5m)] / 2  ; Solve for "x" ;
_________________________________________________________
          (10m + x) (5m) = (2)* (100m²) ;
_________________________________________________________
             (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m² ;
___________________________________________
Note:  The distributive property of multiplication:
____________________________________________
    a(b+c) = ab + ac ;
 
    a(b−c) = ab <span>− ac ;
</span>____________________________________________

  We have:  (5m) (10m + x) = 200 m²  ;
____________________________________________
So:    (5m) (10m + x) =  (5m*10m) + (5m * x) ;
                           
                               =  50m² + (5m)x  ;
_______________________________________________
     →  50m² + (5m)x = 200m²  ; 
_______________________________________________
Divide the ENTIRE equation by "5m" ;
_______________________________________________
     → { 50m² + (5m)x } / 5m = (200m² / 5m) ;
_______________________________________________
     →  10m + x   = 40m ; 
________________________________________________
Now, subtract "10m" from EACH side of the equation; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ;
_______________________________________
     →  10m + x  − 10m  =  40m − 10m ;

to get:

                →    x  =  30 m  ; which is our answer.
___________________________________________________
Answer:  30 m ; (or, write as: "30 meters") .

Converting (x - 4)^2 + y^2 = 16 into polar form
dimulka [17.4K]

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data:

(x - 4)² + y² = 16

Step 02:

polar form:

x = r cos (θ)

y = r sin (θ)

(r cos (θ) - 4 )² + (r sin (θ))² = 16

(r cos θ - 4)² + r² sin² θ = 16

r (r - 8 cos (θ)) = 0

r = 8 cos θ

The answer is:

r = 8 cos θ

Rectangle 1 has length 10 and width 20. Rectangle 2 is made by multiplying each dimension of Rectangle 1 by a factor of k=3
Gwar [14]

Answer:

30cm, 60cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Dimensions of the first rectangle

Length =10cm

Width =20cm

We are told that the dimensions of the second rectangle is gotten by multiplying the first rectangle by 3

Hence the dimensions of the second rectangle is

Length =10*3= 30cm

Width = 20*3= 60cm
