Check out the image attachment for one way to draw this problem out. Notice how angles AEC and DEB are vertical angles, so that means they are congruent angles

(measure of angle AEC) = (measure of angle DEB)
6x + 20 = 10x
6x + 20-6x = 10x-6x ... subtract 6x from both sides
20 = 4x
4x = 20
4x/4 = 20/4 ... divide both sides by 4
x = 5

The value of x is 5.

Let's check the answer
6x + 20 = 10x
6*5 + 20 = 10*5 ... replace every x with 5
30+20 = 50
50 = 50
We have confirmed the answer.

If x varies directly as y, then what is y when x = 4, knowing that x = 60 when y = 5?

Basile [38]

Answer: The answer would be 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Y varies DIRECTLY as x. Find the constant of variation, k, if y = -5x

The first sentence is there for information, the constant is a number( 1,2,3...so on) , so the only number is -5

It is a linear equation meaning equation of a straight line.

its form is y= mx+b, where m is the slope of the line, b is the y intercept when x=0. these info you have to memorize like your life depend on it.

next, y varies directly as x. If y = 15 when x = 60, find y when x = 100

if y= 15, when x=60, then there is a number m such that m*y= 60

or m= 60/y= 60/15 =4

so the equation is y=4x. in this cause, the b=0

so when x=0, y=0

The distance a car travels at a constant speed varies directly as the time the car spends traveling. If a car traveled 105 miles in 3 hours, how far could the car travel in 5 hours?

remember that distance = speed times time.

or d=Vt

so car goes 105 miles on 3 hours

how far it goes in one hour?

if you know that, then you can tell how far it goes in 5 hours.

Hope I made it non tough enough
