Find the length of the altitude to the hypotenuse. round the answer to the nearest tenth, if needed.

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 56.8

Step-by-step explanation :

Right Triangle Altitude Theorem:

The measure of altitude drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right angled triangle to its hypotenuse is the geometric mean between the measures of the two segments of the hypotenuse.

We are drawing a line from vertex to hypotenuse side.

As per theorem:

Therefore, the length of the altitude to the hypotenuse is 56.8

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

let's assume

number of candles set =x

price of of x candles =p(x)

we are given

a candle maker prices one set of scented candles at $10 and sells an average of 200 sets each week

so, we get point as (200,10)

he finds that when he reduces the price by $1, he then sells 50 more candle sets each week

so, we can find slope

now, we can use point slope form of line

now, we can plug values

we can use point

and find b

now, we can plug it back

and we get

now, we can find revenue

we know that

revenue = price*quantity

so, we get
