Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4
Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75
Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.
===========================================================
Work Shown:
AC/QY = CD/YW
(x+5)/15 = 5/4
4(x+5) = 15*5
4x+20 = 75
4x = 75-20
4x = 55
x = 55/4
x = 13.75
------------
Explanations:
- The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
- In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
- On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.
There’s no question here.
All of the numbers are even so 2
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the attached images we can see the rigid transformation of the function 
1. The basic graph
2. The reflected graph 
3. The displaced graph 
Reflection: In the expression , the sign - before the parenthesis indicates that the function is reflected in the x axis, for this case the function is even, this means that -f(x) = f(-x)
, then the reflection on the x axis is equal to the reflection on the y axis.
Displacement: We observe the term (x-4) of the function and analyze the value -4, where, the sign - indicates displacement to the right and the value 4 indicates the amount that the graph shifted
.
