In 2000, 54% of the residents in a large city regularly used newspapers for getting news and this has decreased at an average rate of approximately
1.7 % per year since then. find a linear function in slope-intercept form that models this description. the function should model the percentage of residents,
upper p left parenthesis x right parenthesis comma
p(x), who regularly used the news outlet x years after 2000

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
