This is the concept of relative speed; We are required to calculate the speed of the car and the bicycle.
Distance between the car and Bicycle=374 miles
Time they met=5.5 hr
Speed traveled by bicycle=x
Speed traveled by car=x+33.4334
Relative speed=x+(x+33.4334)=(2x+33.4334) mph
Distance=speed*time
374=(2x+33.4334)*5.5
374=11x+183.8837
collecting like term we get:
374-183.8837=11x
11x=190.1163
thus;
x=(190.1163)/(11)
x=17.2833 mph
thus the speed of the bicycle was x=17.2833 mph
The speed of the car was (x+33.4334)=(17.2833+33.4334)=50.7167 mph

The congruent statement and the reason why the triangles are congruent is (b) ΔUVZ ≅ ΔVYX, SSS

<h3>How to determine the congruent statement and the reason?</h3>

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Triangles = UVZ and VYX

There are several theorems that make any two triangles to be congruent

One of these theorems is the SSS congruent theorem

The SSS congruent theorem implies that the corresponding sides of the triangles in question are congruent

From the question, we can see that the following corresponding sides on the triangles UVZ and VYX have the same mark

UV and VY

UZ and VX

VZ and YX

This implies that these sides are congruent sides

Hence, the congruent statement on the congruency of the triangles is (b) ΔUVZ ≅ ΔVYX and the reason is by SSS

Look for a pattern for the decimal 0.555, the value of the digit in the tenths place is how many times as munch as the value of
Galina-37 [17]
<span>the value of the digit in the tenths place is 5/10 or 0.5
</span>
the value of the digit in the thousandth place is 5/1000 = 0.005

0.5 = 100 x 0.005

Therefore, the value of the digit in the tenths place is 100 times as much as the value of the digit in the thousandth place
