Given the function h(x)=x2+6x+4h(x)=x 2 +6x+4, determine the average rate of change of the function over the interval −7≤x≤−2−7≤x≤−2.

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).

the transitive property of equality.

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is:

the transitive property of equality.

explanation:

we know that  ∠bcd is congruent to  ∠pbc. we also know that  ∠pbc is congruent to  ∠bad.

we can substitute  ∠bad for  ∠pbc in the first angle congruence statement to give us:

∠bcd is congruent to  ∠bad.

algebraically, the transitive property states if a=b and b=c, then a=c. it basically allows us to substitute equal values. since that is what we did, this is the transitive property.
