Answer:

56 = (0.85)w

Step-by-step explanation:

"is" translates to "=".

"of" translates to "×".

We can let "what number" translate to "w".

Then ...

56 is 85% of what number . . . . translates to ...

56 = 0.85×w

_____

Of course, you know that 85% = 85/100 = 0.85.

The sequence an = 8, 13, 18, 23, ... is the same as the sequence a1 = 8, an = an-1 + 5.
harkovskaia [24]
Actually, this answer would be true. Why?

 The first equation is: a(sub <em>n</em>) = 8, 13, 18, 23

The second is: a(sub 1)=8 ; a(sub <em>n</em>)= a(sub <em>n</em>-1)+5
if you wish to find the second term, plug two into the equation for <em /><em>n</em> 
8+5=13
to find the third, plug the second term, 13, in for <em>n.</em> 
13+5=18.

Hope this helped! I know it's a bit on the late side, but at least you can get the general idea!

Answer:

a. OM is congruent to ON.

Step-by-step explanation:

To use the HL Theorem, you must have a congruent hypotenuse and a congruent leg. In this case, you have two congruent hypotenuses. You just need to find two congruent legs.

a. OM is congruent to ON. This says that two legs are congruent, so this is your answer.

b. LM is congruent to ML. This does not help as it is saying a segment is the same as the same segment.

c. and d. Both of these use angle measurements, which does not help with the HL Theorem.

Hope this helps!

Find the slope of the line whose equation is 2x - 3y + 6 = 0.
Alona [7]
Hi

y = mx+b

2x - 3y + 6 = 0
3y = 2x+6
y = 2x/3+6/3
y = 2x/3+2

m = 2/3
