Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Method</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>:</u>

Given that:

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Here,

Product of extremes = 78 and 66

Product of means = 120 and ?

so,

(78*66) = (120 * ?)

⇛5148 = 120 * ?

⇛5148 = 120?

⇛120? = 5148

Shift the number 120 from LHS to RHS, changing it's sign.

⇛? = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

<u>Method</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>:</u>

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Convert each ratio into fraction.

⇛78/120 = ?/66

On applying cross multiplication then

since, (a/b) = (c/d) ⇛cd = ad

Where, a = 78, b = 120, c = ? and d = 66

Now,

⇛(120)? = (78)66

⇛120? = 5148

⇛(?) = 5148/120

Therefore, (?) = 42.9

<u>Ans</u><u>w</u><u>er:</u> Hence the value of (?) for the given problem is 42.9.

<u>Verification</u><u>:</u>

Check whether the value of (?) is true or false.

78 : 120 :: ? : 66

Substitute the value of (?).

⇛78:120 = 42.9:66

Product of extremes should be equal to product of means.

Product of extremes:- 78*66 = 5148

Product of means:- 120*42.9 = 5148

⇛5148 = 5148

LHS = RHS

Hence, verified.

If f(x) is an even function and (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), which reason explains why (–6, 8) must also be a
ch4aika [34]

Definition: A function is "even" when f(x) = f(−x) for all x.

Geometrically speaking, the graph face of an even function is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, meaning that its graph remains unchanged after reflection about the y-axis.

If point (6, 8) is one the points on the graph of f(x), then f(6)=8 and since function is even, you can state that f(-6)=f(6)=8. This means that point (-6,8) must also be a point on the graph. Geometrically it means that the output of a negative x-value and its opposite is the same.

Answer: correct choice is A.
