The unit rate here is 2 pounds of trash in an hour. If two pounds of trash are picked up in an hour, we can multiply that by 3 and get that there will be 6 pounds picked up in 3 hours.
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
