Answer in fraction form: x = 55/4

Answer in decimal form: x = 13.75

Both forms are equivalent, but they say it in a slightly different way.

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

Work Shown:

AC/QY = CD/YW

(x+5)/15 = 5/4

4(x+5) = 15*5

4x+20 = 75

4x = 75-20

4x = 55

x = 55/4

x = 13.75

------------

Explanations:

  • The first step is possible because the polygons are similar. Similar figures have their corresponding sides be in the same proportion or ratio. Note how side AC has the double red angle (at point A) and a single red angle (point C). The side QY has the same idea in the same order. This is why AC corresponds to QY. The ratio AC/QY is the same as CD/YW.
  • In the second step, I plugged in the expressions that the diagram shows. This is the substitution property.
  • On step 3, I cross multiplied. The general format is A/B = C/D cross multiplies to A*D = B*C.

Julie tried to use the law of syllogism to draw a conclusion based on the statements below. Explain why she is not able to do so
ira [324]

Answer:  The conditional statements are not in the correct form to make a conclusion using the law of syllogism. “If p, then q and if p, then r” cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism. The law of syllogism could be used if the hypothesis in the second statement was "if two pairs of congruent angles are formed."

Step-by-step explanation:

"If p, then q and if p, then r" cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism.

Neither of the conclusions of the conditional statements are the hypothesis of the other.

"If two pairs of congruent angles are formed" could be the hypothesis of the second statement.

** Both can be used to answer the question :)

Take from this what you can

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational function as any function which can be defined by a rational fraction I in algebraic fractions such that both the numerator and the denominator are polynomials

Functions as a form of the non rational function which is usually defined as a function that can be written as the quotient of 2 polynomials with integral coefficients

This is a rational function
