Select the correct answer.

The diagram shows rays of light from a point source, P, that reach a detector, D, along two paths. One path is a straight line, while the other is bent by reflection off a mirror. What is the value of b, correct to one decimal place? Assume that all the points in the diagram lie in the same plane.

A.
5.4

B.
4.2

C.
3.6

D.
2.8

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

step-by-step explanation:

the highest percentage for deaths in construction from highest to lowest is as follows: falls, struck by objects, electrocution, and caught-in/between. these four are collectively known as fatal four.

in the case of falls, the type that is responsible for the overall highest death in the category is falls from roofs.
