Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Congruent angles have equal measures.
74° = (4x +2)°
72 = 4x . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 2
18 = x . . . . . . . divide by 4
Answer:
- y = 0.937976x +12.765
- $12,765
- $31,524
- the cost increase each year
Step-by-step explanation:
1. For this sort of question a graphing calculator or spreadsheet are suitable tools. The attached shows the linear regression line to have the equation ...
... y = 0.937976x + 12.765
where x is years since 2000, and y is average tuition cost in thousands.
2. The y-intercept is the year-2000 tuition: $12,765.
3. Evaluating the formula for x=20 gives y ≈ 31.524, so the year-2020 tuition is expected to be $31,524.
4. The slope is the rate of change of tuition with respect to number of years. It is the average increase per year (in thousands). It amounts to about $938 per year.

Answer: Segment BD = 15
Step-by-step explanation: Ok. So, we know that segment DE is parallel to segment BC and segment EF is parallel to segment AB. The triangle proportionality theorem states that if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle and also intersects the other two sides, the line divides the sides proportionally. To put it more simply; because segment EF is parallel to segment AB, triangles ADE and EFC are proportional and similar. From there we must find the scale factor by which these two triangles are proportional.
We can do this by dividing the corresponding segments by; each other.
24 ÷ 20 = 1.2
Scale Factor = 1.2
Then we divide segment AD (18) by the scale factor (1.2).
18 ÷ 1.2 = 15
Since segment EF is parallel to segment AB, segment EF corresponds and is congruent to segment DB.
So,
Segment BD = 15
Answer: yes, because any triangle with the ratio of whole number 3:4:5 is a right triangle
