Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick is not to get all caught up in Pythagoras. There is a much simpler way to do it. Find the area of the triangle two different ways. DG and DE are at right angles. That is one way to find area. The other is use the height (DF) and multiply that by the hypotenuse GE.

DG*DE/2 = GE * DF/2            Multiply both sides by 2

DG*DE = GE * DF

DG = 8

DE = 15

GE = 17

8*15 = 17* DF

120 = 17 * DF                         Divide by 17

120/17 = DF

DF = 7.06

What is the rate of change between (-8,- 8) and (0,8)
iren [92.7K]

{ \qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}

We need to find thr rate of change (slope) of the line joining these two points ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: m =   \dfrac{rise}{run}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: m =  \cfrac{8 - ( - 8)}{0 - ( - 8)}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: m =  \cfrac{8  +  8}{0  + 8}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: m =  \cfrac{16}{8}

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: m = 2

Slope of the line (m) joining the two points is 2 ~

Simplify the fraction completely.
k0ka [10]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

40% means 40 parts out of 100. If we have made the numerator of the fraction 2, we have divided 40 by 20. To make this fraction equal to 40/100, we have to divide 100 by 20 as well, giving us 5.
