Juanita is cutting a piece of construction paper in the shape of a parallelogram. two opposite sides of the parallelogram have lengths (5n − 6) cm and (3n − 2) cm. the third side measures (2n + 3) cm. what are the lengths of two adjacent sides of the parallelogram? 2 cm and 2 cm 4 cm and 7 cm 7 cm and 9 cm 13 cm and 19 cm the correct answer is b. 4 cm and 7 cm <

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.

you need to rotate this triangle about the origin 270 degrees clockwise to create the full square.
