Combine like terms.

5x + 1 - 18

1 - 18 = -17

5x - 17 is your answer

Which of the following theorems verifies that ABC~WXY?

Bumek [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. AA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two triangle:

$\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle WXY$ .

The dimensions given in $\triangle ABC$ are:

$\angle A = 27^\circ\\\angle B = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle A+\angle B+\angle C = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 27+90+\angle C=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle C = 63^\circ$

The dimensions given in $\triangle WXY$ are:

$\angle Y = 63^\circ\\\angle X = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle W+\angle X+\angle Y = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W+90+63=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W = 27^\circ$

Now, if we compare the angles of the two triangles:

$\angle A = \angle W = 27^\circ\\\angle B = \angle X= 90^\circ\\\angle C = \angle Y= 63^\circ$

So, by AA postulate (i.e. Angle - Angle) postulate, the two triangles are similar.

$\triangle ABC \sim \triangle WXY$ by AA theorem.

So, correct answer is option B. AA

Need an explanation on number 44 to why E is correct

aliina [53]

Before we can make sure that E is correct, we need to make the denominator is equal with questions and the choices or convert into decimal.

2/3 = 0.66

1/3=0.33

1/5=0.2

2/6=1/3 = 0.33

1/2 = 0.5

7/10 = 0.7

7/9 = 0.77

The question is :

2/3 < x < 7/9

0.66 < x < 0.77

We need to divide into 2 parts :

0.66 < x

x < 0.77

So we need to find the answer that x is greater that 0.66 and we got 7/10. And 7/10 is less than 7/9.

Hope this helps. Please ask if you don't understand.
