Answer:

Given sides 12, 16 and 20 can be the sides of right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sides of right triangle always follow the Pythagoras theorem.

i.e (base)^2 + (Height)^2 = (Hypotenuse)^2

For the given Lengths 7, 40 and 41

We need to check if

7^2 + 40^2 =41^2 \\or\\ 7^2 + 40^2 \neq41^2

Since \\7^2 + 40^2 = 1649\\and \\41^2 = 1681

That means, \\ 7^2 + 40^2 \neq 41^2

hence 7,40 and 41 can not be the sides of right triangle.

Next,

Given sides 12,16 and 20.

Again follow the similar process used in the above problem.

12^2 + 16^2 =400\\And \\20^2 = 400\\Since 12^2 + 16^2 = 20^2

Therefore given sides 12,16 and 20 can be the sides of right triangle.

Direct variation has this equation:

y = kx

where k is the constant of variation

y = -5 ; x = -15

y = kx
-5 = k(-15)
-5/-15 = k
1/3 = k

Choice D. y = 1/3 x

Is bse~ tes? if so, identify the similarity the similarity postulate or theorem that applies
hammer [34]
The triangles are congruent by the SAS congruence theorem. By extension, we can also say they are similar using a closely related theorem. Any time there are congruent triangles, they are automatically similar.

This is why the answer is choice C) Similar - SAS

Note how
SB = ET ... which forms the first "S" in "SAS"
angle ESB = angle SET ... which forms the "A" in "SAS"
SE = SE ... which forms the second "S" in "SAS"
this is why SAS works

Question 1: An online music store is offering a promotion. When you spend $30 or more, you receive 3 songs for free. You buy an
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

10 + m  ≥ 30

You must spend AT MOST $20 or more

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically you have already spent 10 dollars and you have to pay MORE than or equal to 30. You cannot pay less than because you want the free songs. So the sign has to be  ≥ or the inequality will not be true.

10 + m  ≥ 30

10 - 10 + m  ≥ 30 - 10     ( subtract 10 from each side to isolate m)

m  ≥ 20     ( we are left with this )

The answer is :

m  ≥ 20

You must spend at most 20 dollars more to get the 3 free cd's. Your welcome :D

M and n are integers such that 6 &lt; m &lt; n. what is the value of n ?
Rainbow [258]
N can be equal to anything below 4 because if they are integers, m will equal to 5 or lower, as long as it is a whole number, but since the greatest possible answer is 5 then we will say m=5.  So it is simplified to 6<5<n, and same thing, n is equal to any whole number below 5, so n is equal to 4, 3, 2, 1, 0, etc.
