Two cars leave the same parking lot, with one heading north and the other heading east. After several minutes, the eastbound car has traveled 5 kilometers. If the two cars are now a straight-line distance of 13 kilometers apart, how far has the northbound car traveled?

the solution is the point

step-by-step explanation:

we have

> equation a

> equation b

adds equation a and equation b

substitute the value of x in equation b to find the value of y

the solution is the point

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
