The answer is D, because the question asks for "...the sum of x and 5..." which means that they want x and 5 to be together, so that eliminates every answer choice except D.

Your question states...

Sixteen -------> 16
divided by -------> /
the sum of x and 5 -----> x+5
is 12 ------> = 12

16/x+5 = 12

Answer D

The reason it is NOT answer A is because is says "divided by the sum of x and 5".  In the order of operations, division happens before addition, so if it did not say "the sum of", then 16 divided by x (16/x) would happen before adding 5 (like in answer A).  But is says "the sum of" so you have to do the addition first.

XYZ is a dilation of triangle ABC by a scale factor of 5. Which of the following proportions verified that triangle ABC and XYZ
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

C. AB/XY = AC/XZ

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilation:

A dilation is a transformation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original, but is a different size. The original figure either stretches or shrinks by a certain factor.

In the problem, the dilation is by a factor of 5 and we can see that ABC shrinks to form XYZ.

So, ABC and XYZ are similar triangles which means that the ratio of their corresponding sides will be equal:

AB/XY = AC/XZ = BC/YZ = 5
