The function that represents surviving people are X = 2m - d
Given that there are m married couples and d of the 2m of these couples have died, the total people that remain is expressed as:
Total people remaining = Total married couple - those that died
Total married couple = 2m
Total people that died = d
Taking the difference to get the remaining people;
Total people remaining = 2m - d
Hence the function that represents surviving people are X = 2m - d

x ≤ 2.6 would look like this on the number line, the 2.6 part would be shaded in as well and not left open since x is less than OR EQUAL to 2.6
Hi there!

The two trapezoids are similar, so we can determine a common scale factor:
OL/UR = NM/TS
9/3 = 6/2
3 = 3
Trapezoid ONML is 3x larger than UTSR, so:
RS = 4, LM = y
3RS = LM
3 · 4 = y = 12.
Find x using the same method:
3UT = ON
3(2x+1) = 4x + 9
6x + 3 = 4x + 9
2x = 6
x = 3.
I think it’s C if you still need an answer but don’t trust me on that
