Given:
4:x::x:16
To find:
The value of x.
Solution:
We have,
4:x::x:16
It means, we have
4:x = x:16
It can be rewritten as

On cross multiplication, we get


Taking square root on both sides.


Since ratio can be negative or positive, therefore, the value of x is either -8 or 8.
Answer:
y = -4x + (-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
if you plug in the x values in the equation it equals y
Let's call animals "a", and birds "b", birds of prey, "p"
so, b=

and p=

what;s the relation of p to a?
we substitude b into the last one:
and p=

so:
p=

p=

p=

p=

which is the answer!
