C, D, and E all represent parts of the situation.  

A does not, because x is actually 55 smaller than y, which is why both D and E work.  

B does not because it's doubling the sum of x = y, but the description says to double x and then add y (which is why C works).

X and y are the numbers
y>x

sum (addition) of twice a number (2x) and larger number (y) is (=) 145
2x+y=145

difference between them is 55 (y is bigger so it would be x is subtracted from y)
y-x=55

so the equations are

2x+y=145 and
y-x=55

we could add x to both sides in the 2nd equation to obtain
y=x+55, but that doesn't really represent that the difference is 55, though they are the same euation

so I would say C and D only

Answer:

He washed 4 cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The variable that was unknown x amount of cars washed.

2.The equation I used was 110-50=15x

3. To solve this you subtract the 50$ from 110$ you get sixty dollars you do that to take out what he earned for his allowance. Then your equation is 60=15x so you divide each side by 15 and when you do that x=4

The length of the segment from a point c _____ to the line AB gives the distance from point c to the line ab brainly
guapka [62]

Answer:

A. Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

When lines and/or points are in perpendicular to one another, the perpendicularity line between them measures the distance between both points and/or lines.

So to measure the distance between point c and line AB, a perpendicular line has to be drawn from c to AB or from AB to c. Either of these will arrive at the same result.

It should also be noted that the angle at the point of intersection of perpendicular lines is 90°.
