PLEASE HELP IM SO STRESSED • In the early hours of April 1, 2010, a pirate attack
group opened fire on the USS Nicholas
(pictured below) in the middle of the Indian Ocean.
• At the time, the USS Nicholas was about 570 nautical miles off the coast of
Somalia.
• The pirates failed their mission and they were captured.
• The Navy held a hearing to determine what happened during the
encounter.
. One witness was on watch in the CIC (Combat Information Centre) when
the attack
happened. She said that she saw a pirate holding his gun at a
45°
angle pointing up
towards the ship. She also stated that the pirate appeared to be about 100
yards away
from the ship
• When the ship was inspected, a bullet hole was discovered in the mast,
about 150 feet
above the waterline. This bullet hole matched the size of the bullets used by
the pirates
My question is the witness telling the truth and what is the reason? Please
write it with a mathematical language and vocab

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.

this may not be at all, but i use the same website you're using for school, and if i'm stuck doing one of these i try to look for it on the section.
