1/2(x + 4) = -12
1/2x + 2 = -12
1/2x = -10
x = -20
The true statements are:
- The independent variable is the number of people.
- The rate of change is $8.67 per person.
- As the number of people increases, the total cost of the picnic increases.
<h3>What are the true statements?</h3>
The independent variable is the variable that determines the value of the dependent variable. There is a positive relationship between the number of people at the picnic and the total cost. This is because it can be seen as the number of people at the picnic increases, the total cost changes.
Rate of change = total cost / number of people
$52 / 6 = $8.67

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sin(y°) = cos(x°)
So, ∠y + ∠x = 90° ⇒(1)
And as shown at the graph:
ΔABC is aright triangle at B
So, ∠y + ∠z = 90° ⇒(2)
From (1) and (2)
<u>∴ ∠x = ∠z </u>
ΔCDE is aright triangle at D
So, ∠x + ∠w = 90° ⇒(3)
From (1) and (3)
<u>∴ ∠y = ∠w</u>
So, for the triangles ΔABC and ΔCDE
- ∠A = ∠C ⇒ proved by ∠y = ∠w
- ∠B = ∠D ⇒ Given ∠B and ∠D are right angles.
- ∠C = ∠E ⇒ proved by ∠x = ∠z
So, from the previous ΔABC ~ ΔCDE by AAA postulate.
So, the answer is <u>y = w and ΔABC ~ ΔCDE</u>
