In geometry proofs, we commonly use step-by-step logic to figure out the proof. This is commonly used in Computer Science for understanding how computers work, process, and store information(I speak from personal experience). This is also commonly used in Law. You use this in Law as a lawyer to deduce information using step-by-step logical processes and logic, otherwise it's just wishful thinking. So, Law also uses the same reasoning skills used in Geometry proofs.

Multiply both sides of the equation by 12

Answer:
y=40
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Direct Variation is y=kx or k=y/x. In this case I would use k=y/x. If you're y is 8 and x is 3, this means that K=8/3. Using this, we know that X=15. We have to find a Y value so that the fraction with an x of 15 simplified is 8/3. To do this you would write 8/3 and y/15. Now cross multiply to get 3y=120. Divide by 3 to get y=40.

Given:
second term = 18
fifth term = 144
The nth term of a geometric sequence is:

Hence, we have:

Divide the expression for the fifth term by the expression for the second term:

Substituting the value of r into any of the expression:

Hence, the explicit rule for the sequence is:
Answer:
A. They're not simalier because two pairs of corresponding angles in the two trapezoids are congurant
