A proportion is a pair of equal ratios.
Answer:
C) x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.
So,<em> 3 * 6 = x * 2</em>
Multiply: 18 = x * 2
Divide: x = 9
Y = mx + c
y = 2x + c
When x = 5 and y = 0,
0 = 2(5) + c
c = -10
y = 2x - 10
2n n2 3n 2x 2n 3n x 3 x 2x 3n 3x
Steps:
1. Change x + y= 27 into y=mx+ b form
2. Subtract x on both sides
Y= -x + 27
3. Substitute the y in x + 3y= 73 for -x + 27
X + 3(-x + 27) = 73
X + -3x + 81= 73
-2x + 81= 73
4. Now subtract 81 on both sides
-2x=-8
5. X= 4
6. Now solve for y
7. Now substitute the x in x + y= 27 for 4
8. 4 + y= 27
9. Subtract 4 on both sides
10. Y= 23
11. Your answer is: x= -4 and y= 23 or (-4,23)
