Answer:

P = 61 - 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

According to a recent survey, in 2000, 61% of households had one or more pets. Throughout the next decade, this decreased by approximately 4% per year.

Therefore, if P represents the percentage of households having pets and x is the number of years after 2000, the expression for P as a function of x will be

P = 61 - 4x (Answer)

Pls help. What is the appropriate congruent for these triangles
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

In given triangle

Line BC = Line QR

Angle ABC = Angle PQR

Angle ACB = Angle PRQ

Computation:

Angle ABC = Angle PQR (Angle)

Line BC = Line QR (Side)

Angle ACB = Angle PRQ (Angle)

So,

ΔABC ≅ ΔPQR

By Angle Side Angle property

Answer:

 IS a parallelogram

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope formula for the slope of the line between points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

The distance formula for the length of that same line is ...

  d = √((x2 -x1)^2 +(y2 -y1)^2)

Here, you're asked to use each of these formulas 4 times, once for each side of the quadrilateral. I find it convenient to let a calculator or spreadsheet do the repetitive calculations. The result is attached.

The attachment shows that opposites sides have the same length and slope, so are parallel. The quadrilateral is a parallelogram. (The two points used in each calculation are the ones on the result line and the line immediately below. That is why point B is copied to the end of the list.)

_____

<em>Additional comments</em>

There are much simpler ways to prove the figure is a parallelogram. My favorite is to add the coordinates of the end points of the diagonals:

  B +D = (-2+6, -9-3) = (4, -12)

  C +E = (0+4, -5-7) = (4, -12)

These values being the same demonstrates the midpoints of the diagonals are coincident. That will only be the case if the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

__

If you must use slope and distance formulas, showing either pair of opposite sides is parallel and have the same length is sufficient to guarantee that the other two sides are also parallel and have the same length. That is, the calculations required in this problem only need to be applied to one pair of opposite sides. (Using a spreadsheet, it's not a lot of extra work to do the calculations for both pairs of opposite sides.)

Find the value of x, o is the centroid
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

In the triangle O is the centroid.  

Now, we know that the centroid divides the medians in the 2 : 1 ratio that means the distance from the centroid to the vertex and the distance from the centroid to the opposite side remains in 2 : 1 ratio.

So, from the given diagram we can write  

\frac{3x}{2x - 7} = \frac{2}{1}

⇒ 3x = 4x - 14

⇒ x = 14 (Answer)
