<h3>Answer: UF = 11</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

In EFU, we see that EU are the first and last letters. In VWU, we see that VU are the first and last letters. This order is important to be able to pair EU with VU

So EU/VU is one ratio

The other ratio is UF and UW, which are the last two letters of EFU and VWU respectively. So the other ratio is UF/UW

Set the ratios equal to each other and solve for x

EU/VU = UF/UW

7/35 = x/55

7*55 = 35*x ... cross multiply

385 = 35x

35x = 385

x = 385/35 .... divide both sides by 35

x = 11

UF = 11

------------

Or you could note how UV = 35 is exactly 5 times larger compared to EU = 7

That must mean WU = 55 must also be 5 times larger compared to UF = x

So,

WU = 5*UF

55 = 5x

5x = 55

x = 55/5

x = 11

UF = 11

This is similar to the previous section because UV/EU = 35/7 = 5 is the scale factor.

O<br> 1) Which below graph represents direct variation?<br> GRAPH A<br> or<br> GRAPH B<br> Why?
Zina [86]

Answer:

Graph B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for direct variation is y=kx, with k being the slope. As you can see from the equation, there is no y-intercept. In graph A, you would add 8; therefore, it does not meet the requirements for direct variation.

Three times the sum of a number and seven is negative thirty-six. What is the number?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

n =-19

Step-by-step explanation:

3* (n+7) = -36

Distribute

3n+21 = -36

Subtract 21 from each side

3n+21-21 = -36-21

3n = -57

Divide by 3

3n/3 = -57/3

n =-19
