Answer:

AB=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Colinear means all points are on the same line. We need to find the measure of AB.

Using the segment addition postulate,

ab+bc=ac

Subsitue this for our known values

$2x + 15 + 9 = x + 17$

Solve for x

$2x + 24 = x + 17$

$x + 24 = 17$

$x = - 7$

Plug this in for AB

$2( - 7) + 15 = 1$

Y varies directly with the square x. If y= 27 when x = 3, find y when x = -4

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

y~x²

y/x²= k

27/3²=3

therefore k= 3

y/ -4 = k

y / -4= 3

3y = -4

y = -4

Does this graph show a function explain how you know

galina1969 [7]

No, the graph fails the vertical line test. In a function, each x value only has one y value. The y value can have more than one x value in a function
