r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

D: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The entire segment KI is composed of the segments KJ and JI. So:

KI=KJ+JI

We know that KI is 15.

KJ is (2x-15) and JI is (2x-6). Substitute:

15=(2x-15)+(2x-6)

Solve for x. Combine like terms:

15=4x-21

Add 21 to both sides:

4x=36

Hence, the value of x is:

x=9

We know that JI is 2x-6.

We will substitute 9 for x to find JI. So:

JI=2(9)-6=18-6=12

Hence, our answer is D.

Find the percent of increase or decrease from the first number to the second number. 140 to 84
tresset_1 [31]
We can automatically see that we are dealing with a percent decrease because we are going from a smaller to a bigger number. We need to first find what percent of 140the number 84 is. to do this we can set up the following equation:

140/84=100/x (this equation is basically saying if 140 is 100(%) what would 84 be?)

solving for x here gives us x = (84 X 100)/140 = 60, so 84 is 60 percent of 140 which means 140 decreased by 40 percent.

Let me know if I can clear anything else up.

Cathy did a survey in four bird parks and wrote the following observations: park p number of green birds 18 total number of bird
Nutka1998 [239]
Park p : 
18/82 = 0.219 = 21.9% green birds

park q :
39/88 = 0.443 = 44.3% green birds

park r :
38/64 = 0.593 = 59.3% green birds

park service :
22/50 = 0.44 = 44%

park with greatest percentage of green birds is park r <==

What equation is graphed in this figure?
Ksivusya [100]

to get the equation of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, let's use those two points in the picture below.

(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{5}-\stackrel{y1}{2}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{1}-\underset{x_1}{0}}}\implies \cfrac{3}{1}\implies 3 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_2=m(x-x_2) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_2}{5}=\stackrel{m}{3}(x-\stackrel{x_2}{1})

keeping in mind that for the point-slope form, either point will do, in this case we used the second one, but the first one would have worked just the same.
