Line segments ab and cd are both part of the same non-vertical line, and the slope of
line segment ab is 6. using similar triangles, what can you show the slope of line
segment cd to be?

step-by-step explanation:

total income = price of one ticket   *   number of tickets sold

  y                 =     4                                   x

so the equation is y=4x     with x≥0   because number of tickets sold can not be negative

thus the equation is a semi -line with an end point at

(0,0)

passing through :

x=1     y=4(1) = 4   so through (1,4)

the given growth  function for the length of the fish (cm) is

f(m) = 5(1.07)m = 5.35m

where 

m = months

at the end of the study, the length is 9.19 cm. the  time for conducting the study is determined as

5.35m = 9.19

m = 1.7178 months

part a.

the study was performed over a time period  of about 1.72 months. therefore  the domain for  plotting the function is 0 < = m < = 1.72.

note:

if growth  continues at this rate for up to m months, then the domain would be 0< =m< =m.

part b.

the growth function is a linear function.

when m=0, f=0.

therefore the initial growth is zero, which represents the y-intercept.

part c.

assume that the growth function is valid for 0< =m< =9.

the average rate of change of the function is the slope of the linear function, which is 5.35 cm/month.

it would be less than 25
