Answer:

B. At least two of the angles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to choose the correct option about the angles of an isosceles triangle. Let us see our given choices one by one.

A. All three angles are congruent.

We know that all angles of an equilateral triangle are equal. We know that each equilateral triangle is an isosceles triangle as it three congruent angles.

For a triangle to be an isosceles triangle at least two angles needs to be congruent, therefore, the given statement is not true.

B. At least two of the angles are congruent.

For a triangle to be an isosceles triangle at least two angles needs to be congruent, therefore, the given statement is true.

C. The vertex angle is a right angle.

The vertex angle is not always a right angle as when each base angle of isosceles triangle is 50 degree, then vertex angle will be 80 degrees, therefore, the given statement is not always true.

D. The vertex angle is obtuse.

The vertex angle is not always an obtuse angle as when each base angle of isosceles triangle is 70 degree, then vertex angle will be 40 degrees, therefore, the given statement is not always true.

42 in a 4x to 3x ratio

4x + 3x = 42
7x = 42
x = 6

43 can be put in a 4(6) to 3(6) ratio

which is a 24 to 18 ratio, also written as 24:18

What is the equation of the line?

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

First find the slope of the line. Slope is defined as the change in y over the change in x.

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Find two ordered pairs and plug them into the slope formula.

After looking at the graph, I found two points: (0, 1) and (4, 4)

$\frac{4 - 1}{4 - 0} = \frac{3}{4}$

Now find where the line intersects the y-axis.

After looking at the graph, I found out that the line intercepts the y-axis at
(0, 1)

Now build the slope-intercept equation.

General form: y = mx + b
Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept

So, the answer is y = 3/4m + 1

In the Example, why is it helpful to find 10% of Carmela's earnings before finding 100% of her earnings?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

It's helpful to find 10%, as it is on a smaller scale and easier to find. From there it's simple to just multiply by 10 to get 100% of her earnings.
