This is a proportional relationship. So any example that shows as x increases, y decreases.
A real life example would be where
x=time i let the pool drain
y=amount of water left over
As I let the time I let the pool drain increase, the amount of water left in the pool decreases.
Answer:
The area of the Triangle is 1/2 the area of the Rectangle
The answer is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ignore the area of the rectangle for the moment, just so you can get the answer.
Area Triangle = 1/2 * b * h
Area Triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 4
Area Triangle = 1/2 32
Area Triangle = 16 square feet.
The area of the rectangle = L * W
L = 8
W = 4
Area of the rectangle = 8*4 = 32
Answer:
x = - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
- 2(bx - 5) = 16 ← substitute b = 3
- 2(3x - 5) = 16 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
3x - 5 = - 8 ( add 5 to both sides )
3x = - 3 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = - 1
