The table shows y as a function of x. suppose a point is added to this table. which choice gives a point that preserves the function?
a) (−5, 7)
b) (9, −5)
c) (−1, −5)
d) (−8, −6)

A) (-5,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Functions and Relations

A set of values A can have a relation with another set B as long as at least one element of A has at least one image in B. Functions are special relations where each element of A (the domain of the function) has one and only one image on B (the range of the function).

By looking at the options, we can see that x=9, x=-8, and x=-1 already have defined values in Y, so if we define another value for any of them the relation will stop being a function. The only possible choice to preserve the function is the option

12cm

the answer is d

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
