According to HL theorem if one leg and hypotenuse of one right triangle are equal to one leg and hypotenuse of other right triangle, then the triangles are congruent.
By using this theorem we can set up the system of equations as follows:
x=y+1 ...(1)
2x+3= 3y + 3 ..(2)
By using equation (1) next step is to plug in y+1 for x in equation (2). So,
2 ( y + 1) + 3 = 3y + 3
2y + 2 + 3 = 3y + 3 By using distribution property.
2y + 5 = 3y + 3
2y + 5 - 5 = 3y + 3 - 5 Subtract 5 from each side.
2y = 3y - 2
2y - 3y = -2 Subtract 3y from each sides.
-y = -2
So, y=2
Next step is to plug in y=2 in equation (1) to get the value of x. Hence,
x= 2+1
=3
So, x=3 and y=2 make these triangles congruent.
So, the correct choice is 3. x = 3, y = 2.
<span>If the interest is comounded every 2 months then you will
apply the interest 6 times in a year. So the value of n that you will plug into
your equation is 6 because there 12 months a year then it wll be compounded
every 2 months</span>
The identity property of addition states that the sum of any number and 0 is the original number.
so...x + 0 = x would be the identity property of addition (also called the additive identity)
Answer:
y = 3/2*x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say that P1=(6,4) and P2=(4,1) and that the form of the equation must be y=m*x+b where m is the slope and b the independent variable. Then having two given points we can use the slope formula to find the slope value as:
P1=(x1,y1) and P2=(x2,y2)
slope formula ---> m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Replacing the given points ---> m=(1-4)/(4-6) = 3/2
then replacing the slope value obtained:
y = 3/2*x + b
Now lets find the value of b. For this we have to replace in the equation a point it can be P1 or P2, i will replace P2:
1 = 3/2*4 + b
1 = 6 + b
1 - 6 = b
-5 = b
therefore the line equation is:
y = 3/2*x - 5
