8y = 23 + 3x divided by 8: divide ALL numbers by 8
8y/8 is y
23/8 is 23/8
3x/8 is 3/8x
Therefore, the answer would be;
y = 23/8 + 3/8x, which is the same as y = 3/8x + 23/8
Basically, the closer they fit to the imaginary line of best fit, the higher they are
the closer the dots are to the imaginary line, te higher the number
D looks the closest together so that is first
A is a little farther apart
C is farther
B is farthers
DACB is order
You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21
Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:
... AC/AD = AB/AC
... AB = AC²/AD
... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle
_____
Then the area (A) is ...
... A = (1/2)bh
... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units
_____
As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...
... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB
You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.
