Answer:

The  statements which are correct are:

  • It is enough to show that two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
  • It is enough to show that all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

If two triangles have two pairs of sides in the same ratio and the included angles are also equal, then the triangles are similar.

Two triangles are similar if they have:


  • all their angles equal
  • corresponding sides are in the same ratio

There are three ways to find if two triangles are similar: AA, SAS and SSS:

1)

It is enough to show that two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.

because if two triangles will be congruent than automatically the third will also be congruent and  hence we can apply AA similarity.

2)

It is enough to show that all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Hence, it will imply SSS similarity.

Hence, these two conditions would be enough to show that the triangles are similar.

1. How much greater is -20x^2+5x+17 than -19x^2+20x+18
ehidna [41]

Answer:

1. -x²-15x-1

2. -33x⁷+10x⁶-14x⁵+4x⁴+11x²-5x+32

Step-by-step explanation:

-20x^2+5x+17 - (-19x^2+20x+18)

-20x² + 19x² + 5x - 20x + 17 - 18

-x² - 15x - 1

-20x^7+10x^6-5x+15 - (13x^7+14x^5-4x^4-11x^2-17)

-20x⁷ - 13x⁷ + 10x⁶ - 14x⁵ + 4x⁴ + 11x² - 5x + 15 + 17

-33x⁷ + 10x⁶ - 14x⁵ + 4x⁴ + 11x² - 5x + 32

For each situation below, write the equation of the line and explain how you can tell.
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Has a slope of 2 and passes through (10,17)

Using the slope intercept form

y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the equation

17 = 2(10)+b

17 = 20+b

Subtract 20 from each side

17-20 =b

-3 =b

y = 2x-3

b. passes through (1,-4) and (2,-5)

First find the slope

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-5- -4)/(2-1)

  = (-5+4)/(2-1)

  = -1/1

  = -1

Using the slope intercept form

y = -x+b

Substitute a point into the equation

-4 = -1(1) +b

-4 = -1+b

Add 1 to each side

-3 = b

y = -x+3

In a game, a player earns 100 points for each question answered correctly and earns -30 points for each question answered incorr
REY [17]

The general expression is 130 x - 600 and total points scored by the player is 1220

A) Let the number of correctly answered questions be x.

∴ Number of incorrectly answered questions will be 20 - x.

+ 100 points is awarded for each question answered correctly while -30 points is awarded for each question answered incorrectly.

Thus, the general equation becomes

= 100x - (20 - x)(-30)

= 100x +30x - 600

= 130x - 600

Thus the general expression becomes 130 x - 600

B)  The player answers 14 questions correctly, thus x = 14

Substituting the value of x =14 in the general equation we get,

= 130(14) - 600

= 1820 - 600

= 1220.

Thus the total points scored by the player will be 1220
