<u>Given</u>:

Given that the triangles ABD and CAD are similar.

The length of AB is 12.

The length of BD is x.

The length of AC is 27.

We need to determine the value of x.

<u>Value of x:</u>

Let us use the leg rule to determine the value of x.

Thus, we have;

\frac{BC}{AB}=\frac{AB}{BD}

Substituting the values, we get;

\frac{27}{12}=\frac{12}{x}

Cross multiplying, we get;

27x=12\times 12

27x=144

Dividing both sides by 27, we have;

x=\frac{16}{3}

Thus, the value of x is \frac{16}{3}

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.

A total of 200 10-year-old children of similar intellectual abilities participated in a noise experiment in their classrooms. Th
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The dependent variable for this experiment is the ability of students with similar intellectual abilities to recall the meaning of a symbol in a textbook one week after the start of the experiment which depends on the presence or absence of noise outside the classroom.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an experiment, the independent variable is the one whose value, form or outcome is not determined by any other variable in the experiment.

The dependent variable is the one whose value, form or outcome is determined by one or more other variable(s) in the experiment.

This experiment tests the abilities of students with similar intellectual abilities to recall the meaning of a symbol in a textbook one week after the start of the experiment.

This ability was made to depend on whether there was noise or no noise outside their classrooms.

Since, this variable to be measured is determined by another variable in the experiment, it is evident that this is the dependent variable for this experiment.

Hope this Helps!!!
