The answer is 144.

AC and CE have the same ratio as BA and DE. So you can get the answer by getting their proportions. 

<u>  84  </u> =  <u> 7 </u>
156-x     x 

Cross multiply, transpose, and simplify to get the variable x.

84x = 1092-7x
84x + 7x = 1092
91x = 1092
x = 12

To get AC, substitute. 

AC = 156 - x
AC = 156 - 12
AC = 144

Can someone find the points/coordinates of this graph?
BigorU [14]

Answer:

The x represents the value of the point on the x axis or the horizontal line, and the y represents the vertical line. Now, lets solve for the first point. We can first see that it only moves to the left by two from zero, which is basically -2. So, right now we have (-2,y). We then look for the y in which we see that it is down -6 from zero, so it will be (-2,-6). Time to look for the second point. We should get (2,-3). Now, with these two points, it is time to find the slope intercept form.
