The combined area of two squares is 45 cm². Each side of one square is twice as long as a side of the other square. What is the
1 answer:
Answer:
6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller square have side of x then the larger square has side 2x
Sum the areas of the 2 squares and equate to 45
x² + (2x)² = 45
x² + 4x² = 45
5x² = 45 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x² = 9 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = = 3
side of smaller square = 3 cm
side of larger square = 2 × 3 = 6 cm
check : 3² + 6² = 9 + 36 = 45 cm² ← correct

Answer:
The average rate of change of the function over the interval is 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of change of a function:
The average rate of change of a function f(x) over an interval [a,b] is given by:
Interval -3 less-than-or-equal-to x less-than-or-equal-to 3
This means that
So
Average rate of change
The average rate of change of the function over the interval is 5.
