Answer:
15.
x = 40/9 = 4 4/9
z = 24/5 = 4 4/5
17.
x = 50
y ≈ 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
15. Corresponding segments are proportional:
top right side / whole right side = x / 8
5/(5+4) = x/8
x = 8(5/9) = 40/9
x = 4 4/9
__
right side bottom / right side top = z / 6
z = 6(4/5) = 24/5
z = 4 4/5
____
17. The acute angles are complementary:
x = 90 -40 = 50
__
From the Pythagorean theorem:
y = √(15² -9.6²) = √132.84
y ≈ 11.5

Answer:
6) C 1
7) A 3 (im not sure for this one because it's blurry)
8) C 1
Step-by-step explanation:
6) Replace the f(x) for -1 since we are told f(x) = -1. We then need to use the inverse operation to get x by itself.

Since the opposite of division (which is indicated by the fraction line) is multiplication, we need to multiply the number on the left (-1) times 2.

For this step, the opposite of subtraction is addition so in this step, we must add 3 to -2.

7) Can't explain cause I'm not sure if I'm right
8) To find out the slope of two coordinates we must use the following to determine it.
<h3>
(IN THE PICTURE ATTACHED)</h3>
In this case, the y with the little two will be 4 and the y with the little one is 1. 4-1 is 3 and that's the y cooridnate sorted
For the x coordinate, the x with the little two is 1 and the x with the little one is -2. Thus, we must solve 1-(-2) which also equals 3.
<h3>Since the final coordinates are 3/3 and it simplifies, the final answer is 1.</h3>
