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.
SOLUTION:
A normal distribution would model this situation because the distribution is approximately symmetrical, thus the mean, median and mode are approximately the same and the population size is large ( greater than 30).
Hello there! The answer would be the first one, or No. At least one output results in two inputs.
When dealing with functions: you must remember that x does not repeat. So, lets look at the relation given, {(6, 1), (8, –3), (6, 7)}. You can see that x does repeat, so this is not a function. This eliminates second and fourth option choices. Out of the options A and C, A would be your choice since x is the input value and y is the output value, and there are two input values.
Hope his helps and have a great day!
