<h3>Answer: x = 7</h3>

Explanation:

Segment addition postulate

CD+DE = CE

this basically is the idea of gluing smaller pieces together to get a larger structure. We can go in reverse to break up a large item into smaller bits. This is assuming there is no leftovers, overlaps, or parts wasted/lost.

CD = 9

DE = 3x+6

CE = 36

----

CD+DE = CE

9+3x+6 = 36

3x+15 = 36

3x = 36-15

3x = 21

x = 21/3

x = 7

-----

If x = 7, then

DE = 3x+6 = 3*7+6 = 21+6 = 27

and

CD+DE = 9+27 = 36 = CE

confirming our answer

Answer: B. y = 1/2x - 1

Explanation:
I know someone else already answered, but I wanted to explain why the answer is B.

Consider an equation of a line in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

Since the line intersects the y-axis at -1, that’s the y intercept, or b. We know the slope of the line is positive because it slopes upward from left to right. From each whole number solution point, the line goes up one and two to the right. Slope, represented by m, is “rise” over “run”, or the change in y over the change in x. This makes the slope 1/2.

I hope this helps.

Maximum value = 95

Minimum value = 50

The median value can be obtained from the box and whisker plot. The median value from the plot is ; the green dotted point inside the box :

This point is marked 75.

Hence, median value = 75

Range = maximum - minimum

Range =. 95 - 50 = 45
