Answer:

Option A True

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the internal angles of the triangle is equal to $180\°$

In the triangle JKL

m∠L= $180\°-90\°-27\°=63\°$

The measurements of the angles of triangle JKL are $27\°-90\°-63\°$

In the triangle WXY

m∠W= $180\°-90\°-63\°=27\°$

The measurements of the angles of triangle WXY are $27\°-90\°-63\°$

therefore

Triangle JKL and triangle WXY are similar by AAA ( The AAA postulate states that if you can prove that all three angles of two triangles are congruent, you can prove the two triangles are similar)

It is an absolutely true statement that based only on the information given in the diagram, it is guaranteed that JKL ~ WXY. The correct option among the two options that are given in the question is the first option or option "A". I hope that this is the answer that has actually come to your desired help.

PLEASE HELP PLEASEEEE!!! Number 3

deff fn [24]

The equation for this is a^2+b^2=c^2 so your equation would be 7^2+20^2=X
So you square the 7 and the 20 then take the square root of X and you get
X=21.19

A group of 8 friends (5 girls and 3 boys) plans to watch a movie, but they have only 5 tickets. If they randomly decide who

nalin [4]

Answer:

53.57%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate first the specific number of events that interest us, if at least 3 are girls, they mean that 2 are boys, therefore we must find the combinations of 3 girls of 5 and 2 boys of 3, and multiply that, so :

# of ways to succeed = 5C3 * 3C2 = 5! / (3! * (5-3)!) * 3! / (2! * (3-2)!)

= 10 * 3 = 30

That is, there are 30 favorable cases, now we must calculate the total number of options, which would be the combination of 5 people from the group of 8.

# of random groups of 5 = 8C5 = 8! / (5! * (8-5)!) = 56

That is to say, in total there are 56 ways, the probability would be the quotient of these two numbers like this:

P (3 girls and 2 boys) = 30/56 = 0.5357

Which means that the probability is 53.57%

6x+4y=42 -3x+3y=-6 by elimination

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

x=5, y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this system, we need to find x and y. First, let's find x. In the first equation (6x+4y=42), subtract 4y on both sides to isolate 6x. This will result in 6x=42-4y. Divide by 6 on both sides to isolate x and get x=7- $\frac{2}{3}$ y. Now we know what x equals. Go to the second equation ad plug this into it. So instead of -3x+3y=-6, you'll have -3(7- $\frac{2}{3}$ y)+3y=-6. Use the distributive property to get -21+2y+3y=-6. Add 2y and 3y to get -21+5y=-6. Add 21 to both sides to isolate 5y and get 5y=15. Divide by 5 on both sides to isolate y and get y=3. Now that we know that y=3, we can plug this back into the equation that was bolded above so that we can find x, so we'll have x=7- $\frac{2}{3}$ (3) since y=3, and we'll get x=7- $\frac{6}{3}$ , or x=7-2, or x=5.

x=5

y=2
