There are 5 people who can be guards, 2 will be guards. Since each person has the same chance of becoming a guard, each person has a 2/5 chance of being a guard which makes it unlikely for Diana to become a guard.
Answer:
We know that this triangle is similar because it will have all of the same angles as the first triangle. This is because two parallel lines cut by a transversal will create the same angles. In addition, they share the final angle because we are not changing that angle. Therefore, all 3 are the same, which makes them similar triangles.
Answer:
y = -2x
Step-by-step explanation:
For direct variation: y = kx, where k is the constant of proportionality.
Given that Y equals -12 when x equals 6, we have -12 = k(6). Solve this for k by dividing both sides by 6:
k = -12/6 => k = -2
Then the "direct variation equation" here is y = -2x.
