You are walking directly away from your house. You are 5 miles away from your house when you start walking, so you can determine your distance from your house by adding 5 to the number of miles you have walked. In the equation below, x represents the number of miles you have walked, and y represents your distance from home in miles. The relationship between these two variables can be expressed by the following equation:
y=x+5

Identify the dependent and independent variables.

y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable

Step-by-step explanation

The number on the right of the equal sign is always the independent variable and the number on the left is always the dependent variable.

independent variable = dependent variable +5

2. angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees.

step-by-step explanation:  

we have been given a diagram of a circle and we are told that measure of arc qvt is 156 degrees.  

we can see from our given diagram that angle qrt and angle qst subtends to arc qvt.

since we know that angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are always equal.

by angle subtended by same arc theorem, measure of angle qrt and angle qst will be equal to the measure of arc qvt.

therefore, angles qrt and qst both measures 156 degrees and 2nd statement is the correct choice.
