If CDG ~ EDF, find the value of x.
2x+7
5x-2
48
40

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

48/5x-2 = 40/2x+7

48(2x+7) = 40(5x-2)

96x+336 = 200x-80

-96x           -96x

336 = 104x-80

+80            +80

416/104 = 104x/104

x = 4

constant acceleration- a

constant velocity- c

no velocity or acceleration- b

explanation:

for body moving with a constant acceleration, the rate of change of displacement changes over time. this is proven by the increasing gradient of the curve (a) against time.

a body that is moving at constant velocity covers equal distances over equal periods of time, thus the straight line with a constant gradient c.

a stationary body   covers no displacement as time elapses. thus the flat line with   zero gradient.
