Which similarity statement is true?
stepan [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a)  ΔWZY ~ ΔWXZ ~ ΔZXY

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the similarity statement to be correct, the corresponding sides need to be listed in the same order.

A: ΔWZY lists sides in order short leg (WZ), long leg (ZY).

  ΔWXZ lists sides in order short leg (WX), long leg (XZ).

  ΔZXY lists sides in order short leg (ZX), long leg (XY).

The first similarity statement is correct.

__

You can compare this to an incorrect one, the last one, for example.

ΔYZW lists sides in order long leg (YZ), short leg (ZW).

ΔXZW lists sides in order long leg (XZ), hypotenuse (ZW). Hypotenuse and short leg are not corresponding sides, so the similarity statement is incorrect.

A dilation has center at origin. Which of the following is the image of the point p (7/4-5/2) for a scale factor of 1/7
Natalija [7]

Answer:

The image of the point p is p'(\frac{1}{4},\frac{-5}{14}).

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is \frac{1}{7}.

The coordinates of point p are

(\frac{7}{4},\frac{-5}{2})

If k is the scale factor and origin is the center of dilation, then

(x,y)\rightarrow (kx,ky)

Since the scale factor is \frac{1}{7} and the origin is the center of dilation, therefore

(x,y)\rightarrow (\frac{1}{7}x,\frac{1}{7}y)

The coordinates of image of p are

p(\frac{7}{4},\frac{-5}{2})\rightarrow p'(\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{7}{4},\frac{1}{7}\times \frac{-5}{2})

p(\frac{7}{4},\frac{-5}{2})\rightarrow p'(\frac{1}{4},\frac{-5}{14})

Therefore the image of the point p is p'(\frac{1}{4},\frac{-5}{14}).

A motorboat takes 5 hours to travel 100 kilometers going upstream. The return trip takes
tatuchka [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say b is the rate of the boat in still water, and c is the rate of the current.

Distance = rate × time

Going upstream:

100 = (b − c) (5)

20 = b − c

Going downstream:

100 = (b + c) (2)

50 = b + c

Solve the system of equations using substitution or elimination.  Using elimination, add the equations together:

70 = 2b

b = 35

c = 15

The boat's speed is 35 km/h, and the current's speed is 15 km/h.
