The average rate of change is 12.
27 - 3 = 24.
1 - (-1) = 2 [it’s essentially 1 + 1].
24/2 = 12.
X-6=1/3x( solve equation)
x-1/3x=6
0.7x=6
x=6/0.7
x=8.5 ( i guess its like this)
x = 8
Explanation:
AE = 3x - 4
EC = x + 12
SInce diagonals AC and DB intersect at E
it means the lines which meet at the intersection E are equal. A and C meet at E which gives AE and EC
AE = EC
3x - 4 = x + 12
collect like terms:
3x - x = 12 + 4
2x = 16
divide both sides by 2:
2x/2 = 16/2
x = 8
Answer:
C) y=15
Step-by-step explanation:
y=3x
y=3(5)=15
Let x represent the length of the shorter leg.
Longer leg: 5x +19
Hypotenuse: 5x +20
Pythagorean theorem:
.. x^2 +(5x +19)^2 = (5x +20)^2
.. x^2 +25x^2 +190x +19^2 = 25x^2 +200x +20^2 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
.. x^2 -10x -39 = 0
.. (x -13)(x +3) = 0
.. x = 13 . . . . . . . . . . leg lengths must be positive
The side length of the triangle are 13, 84, 85 feet.
