Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides are proportional.
BE/CD = AE/AD
20/(3x+8) = (x-1)/(x-1+27)
20(x+26) = (3x+8)(x -1)
In standard form, this is ...
3x^2 -15x -528 = 0
x^2 -5x -176 = 0 . . . . . . divide by 3
(x -16)(x +11) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
x = 16
__
This is the positive value that makes the product zero. x=-11 will also make the product 0, but gives negative segment lengths in the geometry. It is an extraneous solution.
I think is complementary but i'm not sure
Answer:photo math
Step-by-step explanation:
No, it does not and it's not supposed to. A trend line is drawn to go through in the best way possible, to go through the "center" of the points as best as it can. It may hit some of the points, but not all of them. Generally, the idea is to try to get the trend line to have as many points "above" it as it does "below" it to say you've gone through them evenly.
I'm not sure but
A) 3 out of 20
B) 11 out of 100
