x = # of ham sandwiches

14-x = # of turkey sandwiches ( as Lexi made 14 sandwiches)


as the question said that the number of ha sandwiches are 4 less than twice number of turkey sandwiches,

x = 2 * (14-x) - 4 = 24 - 2x

3x=24

x = 8


the number of ham sandwiches is 8, and the number of turkey sandwiches is 14-8=6

Based only on the information given in the diagram, which congruence theorems or postulates could be given as reasons why DEF=JK
NISA [10]

Answer:

A) AAS; B) LA; C) ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

AAS is the Angle-Angle-Side congruence statement.  It says that if two angles and a non-included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and non-included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.  In these triangles, ∠E≅∠K, ∠F≅∠L, and DE≅JK.  These are two angles and a non-included side; this is AAS.

LA is the leg-acute theorem.  It states that if a leg and acute angle of one triangle is congruent to the corresponding leg and acute angle of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

The leg we have congruent from each triangle is DE and JK.  We also have ∠E≅∠K and ∠F≅∠L, both pairs of which are acute.  This is the LA theorem.

ASA is the Angle-Side-Angle congruence statement.  It says that if two angles and an included side of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding two angles and included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent.  

We have that ∠D≅∠J, DE≅JK and ∠E≅∠K.  This gives us two angles and an included side, or ASA.

ehidna [41]
You need to go from slope-intercept (y=mx+b) to standard form (ax + by = c).    

slope-intercept form of your provided values:  
y=-x-2  
now, solve for x and y  
x+y=-2  
  
Your answer is x+y=-2.

HELP!!!! I'LL MARK THE BEST ANSWER BRAINLIEST
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

x=1

Explain:

y=2x^2−4x+1

dy/dx=4x-4

The line of symmetry will be where the curve turns (due to the nature of the

x^2 graph.

This is also when the gradient of the curve is 0.

Therefore, let

dy/dx=0

This forms an equation such that:

4x−4=0

solve for x,

x=1

and line of symmetry falls on the line

x=1
