Question

which graph represents a proportional relationship between x and y?

  1. in this figure, the measure of ∠aed is 152°.

what is the degree measure of ∠ced?
a 26°
b. 38°
c. 42°
d. 84°

Explanation:

Response
First Question (Graph Proportional Relationship)
Brief Explanations

A proportional relationship between $x$ and $y$ follows $y=kx$ (a linear equation passing through the origin $(0,0)$, with a constant ratio $\frac{y}{x}=k$).

  1. First graph: Starts at $(1,1)$, not the origin, so not proportional.
  2. Second graph: Horizontal line ($y=3$), $\frac{y}{x}$ is not constant, not proportional.
  3. Third graph: Starts at $(0,10)$, not the origin, so not proportional.
  4. Fourth graph: Straight line passing through $(0,0)$, $\frac{y}{x}$ is constant, so it represents a proportional relationship.

Step1: Set up linear equation

$\angle AED$ is a straight angle supplement to the sum of the three smaller angles:
$$x + 2x + (x-16) + 152 = 360$$

Step2: Simplify and solve for $x$

Combine like terms and isolate $x$:
$$4x + 136 = 360$$
$$4x = 360 - 136 = 224$$
$$x = \frac{224}{4} = 56$$

Step3: Calculate $\angle CED$

Substitute $x=56$ into $(x-16)$:
$$\angle CED = 56 - 16$$

Answer:

The fourth graph (bottom-right, starting at the origin with a shallow positive slope)
