Answer:
- Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).
Explanation:
Benito's error was using the equal sign (=) instead of the congruency symbol (≅).
The congruency symbol (≅) means that the elements (segments, angles or figures in general) have the same measure, i.e. they have equal lengths for the segments or equal measure for the angles.
For instance, it is an error saying that the segment AB is equal to the segment BC because, as you clearly see in the picture, they are not same; they have the same length but they are joining different points, that makes them different in essence, although they have the same length. They would be equal only if they are the same figure.
In mathematics, you must not say that two different segments or two different angles are equal but they are congruent, which means that their lengths are equal. The use of equal is reserved for numbers and variables, not for figures like segment, points, angles, polygons.

Answer:
The equation of a parallel line would be y = 2x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that paralell lines have same slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 2, we know the new line will have a slope of 2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 8 = 2(x - 2)
y - 8 = 2x - 4
y = 2x + 4
Answer:
= 29.82 yards/second
Step-by-step explanation:
The speed is given in the problem. We just need to convert its units. The multiplicative identity (that is, 1) may be used to change the units without changing the value. (note: do you know what the additive identity is?)
61 miles per hour
(61 miles) / (1 hour)
(61 miles)/(1 hour)*1
((61 miles)/(1 hour))*((5280 feet)/(1 mile))
((61 miles)/(1 hour))*((5280 feet)/(1 mile))*((1 yard)/(3 feet))*((1 hour)/(60 minutes))*((1 minute)/(60 seconds))
note: miles, feet, hours, minutes cancel out; leaving yards per second
(61/1)*(5280/1)*(1/3)*(1/60)*(1/60) yards/second (note: I write that way to paste into Excel)
