Explain how to determine if you have a direct variation or proportional relationship given a graph

In right ∆abc shown below, the midpoint of hypotenuse ac is located at d and segment bd is drawn. if ab = 12 and bc = 16, then explain why bd = 10. hint: consider what you know about the diagonals of a rectangle.

Since opening night, attendance at play a has increased steadily, while attendance at play b first rose and then fell. equations modeling the daily attendance y at each play are shown below, where x is the number of days since opening night. on what day(s) was the attendance the same at both plays? what was the attendance? play a: y = 8x + 191 play b: y = -x^2 + 26x + 126 a. the attendance was never the same at both plays. b. the attendance was the same on day 5. the attendance was 231 at both plays on that day. c. the attendance was the same on day 13. the attendance was 295 at both plays on that day. d. the attendance was the same on days 5 and 13. the attendance at both plays on those days was 231 and 295 respectively.
