Find the value of x for the figure below

Mathematics
1 answer:
lana [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

84

Step-by-step explanation:

because the top and bottom lines are parallel, we can conclude that the 2 triangles (top and bottom) are similar triangles. This means the sides lengths  of smaller triangle is proportional to the respective sides on the larger triangle. With this, we can form the following equation:

x/48 = 21/12  (multiply both sides by 48)

x = (21/12)· 48

x = 21 ·4

x = 84

The independent variable in the relationship is the <u><em>Number of Months</em></u> and should be placed on the<em> </em><u><em>x-axis</em></u>

The dependent variable in the relationship is the <em><u>Number of Fish</u></em> and should be placed on the <u><em>y-axis</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain the independent and dependent variables of a relation

  • The independent variable is the input of the relation
  • The dependent variable is the output of the relation
  • The values of dependent variables depend on the values of independent variables
  • When the relation represented graphically the independent variable placed on the x-axis and the dependent variable placed on the y-axis

The table:

→ Number of Months:  0       :  1         :  2       :  3          :  4

→ Number of Fish      : 1,024 :  1,280 :  1600 :  2,000  :  2,500

Let us check is their any constant ratio between the consecutive values of the number of fish

∵ 1,280 ÷ 1,024 = 1.25

∵ 1,600 ÷ 1.280 = 1.25

∵ 2,000 ÷ 1,600 = 1.25

∵ 2,500 ÷ 2,000 = 1.25

∴ The table represent an exponential function, where the input

   is the number of months and the output is the number of fish

∵ The input is independent variable

∴ The independent variable is the number of months

∵ The output is the dependent variable

∴ The dependent variable is the number of fish

∵ The independent variable is placed on the x-axis

∴ The number of months should be place on the x-axis

∵ The dependent variable is placed on the y-axis

∴ The number of fish should be place on the y-axis

The independent variable in the relationship is the <u><em>Number of Months</em></u> and should be placed on the<em> </em><u><em>x-axis</em></u>

The dependent variable in the relationship is the <em><u>Number of Fish</u></em> and should be placed on the <u><em>y-axis</em></u>

If you need an equation it is -3.4x=21.5

You simply divide both sides by -3.4 to get x=-6.32



if that's not right then just get on a calculator and calculate by doing what I said to divide
