there are 15 apples

# of fruits = ?

Process

Rule of three

In the adjoining figure, XY = XZ . YQ and ZP are the bisectors of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cangle" id="TexFormula1

svetlana [45]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statements: Reasons:

$1)\, XY=XZ$ Given

$2) \text{ $ m\angle Y= m\angle Z$}$ Isosceles Triangle Theorem

$\displaystyle 3) \text{ $m\angle Y=m\angle XYQ + \angle QYZ$}$ Angle Addition

$\displaystyle 4)\text{ $YQ$ bisects $\angle XYZ$}$ Given

$5) \text{ $m\angle XYQ=m\angle QYZ$}$ Definition of Bisector

$\displaystyle 6)\text{ $m\angle Y=2m\angle QYZ$}$ Substitution

$7)\text{ $m\angle Z=m\angle XZP+m\angle PZY$}$ Angle Addition

$8)\text{ $ZP$ bisects $\angle XZY$}$ Given

$\displaystyle 9) \text{ $m\angle XZP=m\angle PZY$ }$ Definition of Bisector

$\displaystyle 10) \text{ $ m\angle Z = 2m\angle PZY $}$ Substitution

$11)\text{ } 2m\angle QYZ=2m\angle PZY$ Substitution

$12)\text{ }m\angle QYZ=m\angle PZY$ Division Property of Equality

$13)\text{ } YZ=YZ$ Reflexive Property

$14)\text{ } \Delta YZP\cong\Delta ZYQ$ Angle-Side-Angle Congruence*

$15)\text{ } YQ=ZP$ CPCTC

*For clarification:

∠Y = ∠Z

YZ = YZ (or ZY)

∠PZY = ∠QYZ

So, Angle-Side-Angle Congruence:

ΔYZP is congruent to ΔZYQ

A total of 8,644 people went to the football game. Of thos the visitors side. Of the people sitting on the visitor's side filled

lisov135 [29]

You divide 8644 by 8 which equals 1080.5, but since you can't have half of one person you approximate it to 1080 or 1081.

The distance from your house to the park is represented by the expression "5x + 4 more than 2 − 2x." The distance from the park

Neko [114]

Answer:

The distance from the house to the school is equal to $(4x-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

A-----> the distance from house to the park

B----> the distance from the park to the school

C----> the distance from house to the school

$C=A+B$

we know that

$A=(2-2x)+(5x+4)$

$B=(3x-10)-(2x-2)$

Find the the value of C

$C=(2-2x)+(5x+4)+(3x-10)-(2x-2)$

$C=(4x-2)$

therefore

The distance from the house to the school is equal to $(4x-2)$
