Answer:
I think thr answer mughr ve B for what it sais
I draw the two triangles, see the picture attached.
As you can see, angle 1 and 2 are vertically opposite angles because they are formed by the same two crossing lines and they face each other.
Angles <span>ABQ and QPR, as well as angles BAQ and QRP, are alternate interior angles because they are formed by </span><span>two parallel lines crossed by a transversal, and they are inside the two lines on opposite sides of the transversal.</span>
Hence, Allison's correct claims are:
1 = 2 because they are vertically opposite angles. BAQ = QRP because they are alternate interior angles. Therefore Allison, in order to prove her claim, can use the AA similarity theorem: if two angles of a triangle are congruent to two angles of the other triangle, then the two triangles are similar.
Answer:
1/7 = 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
the error:
it is stated that
subtract (5x)/(x+7) from both sides

multiply both sides by x + 7
7(x+7) = 49x
7x + 49 = 49x
subtract 7x from both sides to isolate x and its coefficient
49 = 42x
thus, this is only true when 49 = 42x. in order for these two equations to be equal, they must <em>always </em>be true, so this is wrong
the solution:
we want to express 7/x as (something) / (x+7). to do this, we can multiply 7/x by 1.
anything divided by itself = 1. thus, if we multiply both the numerator and the denominator by something that turns x into (x+7), we can do what we want to do.
(x+7)/x * x turns x into (x+7), so we multiply both the numerator and denominator by (x+7)/x to get

substitute this for 7/x in our original problem
