Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The corresponding segments are proportional, so you can write any of several equations relating the different segment lengths. Here's one way:
top segment/bottom segment = x/(x+5) = (x-2)/(x+1)
Multiply by the product of denominators:
(x +1)x = (x +5)(x -2)
x² +x = x² +3x -10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
10 = 2x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10 -x -x² to both sides of the equation
5 = x . . . . . divide by 2

It's in both triangles.
Answer:
A. Slope: 4; y-intercept: (0-7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation given is in slope-intercept form, y =mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Our equation is y=4x -7,
Where m = 4 b = -7
If m = to the slope and b = to the y-intercept, our slope would be 4/1 or 4, and our y-intercept would be (0,-7).
The answer, A would be the best for the question.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Reflection
Step-by-step explanation:
A rotation would be to rotate a figure around the origin
A reflection would be to reflect the figure around one of the axes.
A translation would be to move a figure a certain amount of units.
Since A and A' are 2 units away from the y-axis, and C, B, B', and C' are all one unit away from the y-axis, this could not be a translation because the position of A'B'C' is not the same position of ABC.
It could not be a rotation around the origin or any point because it would result the figure in either Quadrant 2 or 3, and in the one occasion it would be in Quadrant 1, the figure cannot be in that position.
This reveals only one option, that which is a reflection. A reflection about the x-axis would not make sense, since it would result in Quadrant 3, so a reflection around the y-axis would make the most sense.
The data we have above also accounts for a reflection, since all points are a certain distant away from the y-axis.
