The function is y=2x
this means that the solutions will have the form (x, y)=(x,2x).
For example: (0,0),(1,2),(2,4),(3,6) are solutions.
The first answer choice satisfies the above conditions.
The second answer choice contains (2,2), and (2,6), both of which do not satisfy the (x,2x) condition, so it's not correct.
The third answer choice contains (4,2), which again does not satisfy (x,2x), so not the right answer.
Answer:
D. 30.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that A, B, C, D, and E are collinear,
AE = 38,
BD = 15, since segment BC = CD = DE, therefore
BD = ⅔ of BE
15 = ⅔*BE (substitution)
Solve for BE
Multiply each side by 3
15*3 = ⅔*BE*3
45 = 2*BE
Divide both sides by 2
45/2 = BE
22.5 = BE
BE = 22.5
Find AB:
AB + BE = AE (segment addition postulate)
AB + 22.5 = 38 (Substitution)
AB = 38 - 22.5 (Subtracting 22.5 from each side)
AB = 15.5
Find length of segment AD:
AB + BD = AD (segment addition postulate)
15.5 + 15 = AD (Substitution)
30.5 = AD
AD = 30.5
The answer is x = 62. YOU'RE WELCOME :D
