Answer:
Catherine is not correct (see the explanation)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>
we know that
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to
![m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%3D%5Cfrac%7By2-y1%7D%7Bx2-x1%7D)
the two points from the graph are
(4,40) and (7,70)
substitute the values in the formula
![m=\frac{70-40}{7-4}\\m=\frac{30}{3}\\m=10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=m%3D%5Cfrac%7B70-40%7D%7B7-4%7D%5C%5Cm%3D%5Cfrac%7B30%7D%7B3%7D%5C%5Cm%3D10)
therefore
Catherine is not correct
Answer:
when a expression is squared (²) that means it is multiplyed by itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/2)² = (1/2 x 1/2)
1 squared = 1
2 squared = 4
1/4 is smaller than 1/2. 1/2 is greater than (1/2)²
Answer:
Parabolas are frequently used in physics and engineering for things such as the design of automobile headlight reflectors and the paths of ballistic missiles. Parabolas are frequently encountered as graphs of quadratic functions.
we know that
the volume of a solid oblique pyramid is equal to
![V=\frac{1}{3}*B*h](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%2AB%2Ah)
where
B is the area of the base
h is the height of the pyramid
in this problem we have that
B is a square
![B=b^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B%3Db%5E%7B2%7D)
where
<u>
</u>
so
![B=x^{2}\ cm^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=B%3Dx%5E%7B2%7D%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D)
![h=(x+2)\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=h%3D%28x%2B2%29%5C%20cm)
substitute in the formula of volume
![V=\frac{1}{3}*x^{2}*(x+2)\\ \\V=\frac{1}{3}*[x^{3} +2x^{2}]\ cm^{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%2Ax%5E%7B2%7D%2A%28x%2B2%29%5C%5C%20%5C%5CV%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%2A%5Bx%5E%7B3%7D%20%2B2x%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5C%20cm%5E%7B3%7D)
therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
![V=\frac{1}{3}*[x^{3} +2x^{2}]\ cm^{3}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=V%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B3%7D%2A%5Bx%5E%7B3%7D%20%2B2x%5E%7B2%7D%5D%5C%20cm%5E%7B3%7D)
