$4 / 8 = 50 cents per pen

.5 * 5 = 2.50
.5 * 3 = 1.50

Ivan pays $2.50 and Jeff pays $1.50

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding segments of similar triangles are proportional. Here, the similar triangles are ...

ΔABC ~ ΔADE

so the relationship between the sides is ...

BC/BA = DE/DA . . . . . . we put the unknown value in the numerator

x/4 = 12/(4+8)

x = 4(1) = 4

A team is selling discount cards as a fundraiser. The table shows the number of cards sold and the remaining amount of money nee

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of the line $\frac{\text{change in y}}{\text{change in x}}$

Therefore, the slope for the given data $=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\Rightarrow\ Slope=\frac{795-875}{20-10}\\=\frac{-80}{10}\\=-8...,\text{which is negative.}$

Hence, the word which describes the slope of the line representing the data in the table = negative.
