Debbie is correct because you can not a percentage of a person therefore you have to round it, and if there was 5,000 female athletes in 2008 and 4,700. If you take 5,000 and subtract 4,700; the answer is 300.

5. Find the value of x that makes BC || DE.

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, you need to set up a proportion:

$\frac{x-2}{15}$ = $\frac{x-1}{18}$

Then cross multiply:

15x - 15 = 18x + 36

Then subtract 15x from both sides:

-15 = 3x + 36

Subtract 36 from both sides:

-51 = 3x

Finally, divide both sides by 3:

x = -7
