<h3>Answer:  E.  45/4</h3>

===========================================

Work Shown:

Because we have similar triangles, we can form the proportion below to isolate x.

(AC)/(BC) = (CD)/(AC)

(15)/(20) = (x)/(15)

15*15 = 20x .... cross multiply

225 = 20x

20x = 225

x = 225/20

x = (5*45)/(5*4)

x = 45/4

Add the numerator and denominator seperatly, then find the quotient <br> -3( - 8) / 5 + 7
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Numerator = -3( - 8)  = - 3 - 8 = -11

Denominator = 5 + 7 = 12

So the quotient = -11/12

Answer

- 11/12

Given that D(x) = 2x, select all of the following that are true statements
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

D(x) is a function

D(x) is a direct variation

D(x) is a rule for the set of points (5.10). (6, 12) and (-2,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

D(x)=2x

D(x) is a direct variation (linear function)

The variable x is the independent variable or input value

The variable D(x) is the dependent variable or output value

<u><em>Verify each statement</em></u>

case 1) D(x) is a function

The statement is true

see the explanation

case 2) x is the dependent variable

The statement is false

The variable x is the independent variable or input value

case 3) D(x) is a direct variation

The statement is true

see the explanation

case 4) D(x) is a rule for the set of points (5.10). (6, 12) and (-2,-4)

The statement is true

Because

For x=5

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(5)=10 ---> is ok

For x=6

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(6)=12 ---> is ok

For x=-2

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(-2)=-4 ---> is ok

Madison reads 24 pages of her book each day. She has read for 9 days &amp; is exactly halfway through reading her book. What is
joja [24]

Answer:

432 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know Madison reads 24pgs/ per day. She reads for nine days, so  she reads 24*9 pages, or 216.

We know also that this is halfway through her book, so 2*216= the whole book, so the book has 432 pages
