Gary is using an indirect method to prove that segment DE is not parallel to segment BC in the triangle ABC shown below:

A triangle ABC is shown. D is a point on side AB and E is a point on side AC. Points D and E are joined using a straight line.

He starts with the assumption that segment DE is parallel to segment BC.

Which inequality will he use to contradict the assumption?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

That Ratios aren't equal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: DE is || to BC.

So in order to make this false then we have to say that the sides aren't proprtional, making it not possible to get the ratios equal.

(See the Triangle proprtionality theorem or the triangle midsegment theorem)

19. Julio is paid 1.4 times his normal hourly rate for each hour he works over
30 hours in a week. Last week he worked 35 hours and earned $436.60. Write
and solve an equation to find Julio's normal hourly rate, r. Explain how you
know that your answer is reasonable.

Answers

Julio's normal hourly rate (r) is equal to $11.8 per hour.

Let the normal hourly rate be r.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

Since Julio worked for 35 hours, it simply means that he was paid r amount of dollars per hour for a period of 30 hours;

[tex]30r[/tex] ......equation 1

Also, for the remaining number of hours (35 - 30), he was paid he was paid 1.4r amount of dollars per hour;

[tex](35 - 30)[/tex] × [tex]1.4r[/tex] [tex]= 5[/tex] × [tex]1.4r[/tex]

[tex]5[/tex] × [tex]1.4r = 7r[/tex]  .....equation 2

Next, we would equate the expressions to the total amount of money earned by adding eqn 1 and eqn 2.

[tex]30r + 7r = 436.60\\\\37r = 436.60\\\\r = \frac{436.60}{37}[/tex]

Julio's normal hourly rate, r = $11.8 per hour.

Therefore, Julio's normal hourly rate (r) is equal to $11.8 per hour.

Which properties belong to all isosceles triangles? Check all that apply.

The base angles are congruent.
All three angles are congruent.
The two sides opposite the base angles are congruent.
All three sides are congruent.
The bisector of the vertex angle is the perpendicular bisector of the base.

Answers

3 Answers:  Choice A, Choice C, Choice E

=====================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices to see which are true and which are false.

A) True. The base angles are the same measure, and they are opposite the congruent sides. Any isosceles triangle has exactly two congruent sides.B) False. This is describing an equilateral triangle (where all three angles are 60 degrees each).C) True. See choice A.D) False. This is describing an equilateral triangle where all sides are the same length. E) True. You can use the SAS (side angle side) congruence theorem to prove that the angle bisector is also the perpendicular bisector. Furthermore, this segment is also a median. This only applies to the vertex angle.

Answer:

The base angles are congruent.

The two sides opposite the base angles are congruent.

The bisector of the vertex angle is the perpendicular bisector of the base.

Answer: Choice B. f(x) = 100 - 68x

Work Shown:

Solve for y. Then replace y with f(x).

[tex]680x + 10y - 1000 = 0\\\\10y - 1000 = -680x\\\\10y = -680x + 1000\\\\y = \frac{-680x + 1000}{10}\\\\y = \frac{-680x}{10} + \frac{1000}{10}\\\\y = -68x + 100\\\\y = 100 - 68x\\\\f(x) = 100 - 68x\\\\[/tex]

15x + 45 = 15 (3 + x) always never one solution how do I do it​

Answers

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to try to get rid of the ().

To do this:

15 * 3 and 15 * x

This makes 45 and 15x after the = , so the formula is now:

15x + 45 = 45 + 15x

Now get the 15x to the left side. When a number switches sides, it becomes negative when positive and positive when negative. So in this case 15x will become -15x and the 45(on the left) becomes - 45

15x - 15x = 45 - 45

Answer: 0

15x + 45 = 45 + 15x
15x - 15x = 45 - 45
0x = 0 (*)
If we plug any real numbers of x to equation (*) we will always get 0 = 0
So the set of solutions of this question is all real numbers

Point Q is located at (-4, 6). Point R is located at (8, 6).

Note: Use distance formula.

Now;

D. The data set has an interquartile range of 9

Answers

Answer:

A. The data set has a median that is not in the data set

Step-by-step explanation:

The median of the data set is the middle  most number  because there is an even amount of number its 8+10/2 or 9 and that is not in the  data set. There is no mode because no number is repeated. The IQR is 12+14/2-4+6/2  or 8 so that means the correct answer is  a.

[tex]\frac{2^{12}}{2^{\frac{k}{2}}}= 32\\\\\frac{2^{12}}{2^{\frac{k}{2}}}=2^{5}\\\\2^{12-\frac{k}{2}}=2^{5}[/tex]

Scouts of ABC school made to run around a regular hexagonal ground fig 9, of perimeter 270 m .If they started running from point X and covered two fifth (2/5th) of the total distance.Which side of the ground will they reach?

Answers

Answer:

Scouts are on the third side in the sense they are running

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular hexagonal shape of perimeter 270 has each side of                 270/6 = 45  

Let´s call d  the run distance  then

d = 2/5 * 270      d = 108 m

We don´t have fig 9 available therefore if  X is a vertex in the hexagon or at the middle point of one side, scouts are 108 m from the starting point which means they had run 2,4 sides of the hexagon. If X is not either a vertex or a middle point of a side then, we have two solutions for the question depending on the sense the scouts took when began the run (clockwise or counterclockwise)

Rochelle deposits $6,000 in an IRA. What will be the value (in dollars) of her investment in 15 years if the investment is earning 9% per year and is compounded continuously? (Simplify your answer completely. Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answers

Answer:

$ 23,145

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a compound interest question where the interest is compounded continuously. Hence, the formula for the value of total amount of investment is:

A = P×e^rt

Where:

A = Total value of investment after t years

P = Principal or Initial amount invested = $6,000

e = Exponential function

r = interest rate = 9% = 0.09

t = time in years = 15

So:

A = $6000 × e^15 × 0.09

A = $6000 × e^1.35

A = $23,144.553184

Approximately , A ≈$23,145

Therefore, the value (in dollars) to the nearest cent of Rochelle's investment in 15 years if the investment is earning 9% per year and is compounded continuously is $23,145.
