Yes they are similar because one they're both 90 degree angles, and two if you divide 12÷8 it'll equal 1.5
Same thing with the other side. If you divide 36÷24 it'll equal 1.5
and this shows proof of similarity since its like half the sides, but they both have the same angles.
(Sides doesn't matter, its the angles)

Why does the value of money in a savings account increase over time? A. because it earns interest B. because future value is alw
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

A. because it earns interest

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest rate is the gaining that you make for keeping your money in the bank. Suppose you have $100 and the bank offers you a 5% annually interest rate. The rate (5%) means that your money will earn five percent of the value each year, so after the first year you will earn (5%)*($100) = $5 of interest just for keeping your money in your savings account. Therefore, your money will grow overtime because it is earning interest. Remember that interest can be compound (over periods) or simple (like our example).

What is the equation of the following line? Be sure to scroll down first to see all answer options.
Harrizon [31]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

Hence, the equation of line is:

y= -6x

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

Clearly from the graph we could see that the line passes through the point (0,0) and (-1/2,3).

Also we know that the equation of a line passing through (a,b) and (c,d) is given as:

y-b=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}\times (x-a)

Here we have:

(a,b)=(0,0) and (c,d)=(-1/2,3)

Hence, the equation of line is:

y-0=\dfrac{3-0}{-\dfrac{1}{2}-0}\times (x-0)\\\\\\\\y=\dfrac{3}{\dfrac{-1}{2}}\times x\\\\y=3\times (-2)\times x\\\\y=-6x

Hence, the equation of line is:

y= -6x

Explain how to use the missing pieces strategy to compare two fractions. Include a diagram with your explanation.
kozerog [31]
The missing pieces strategy is another method to compare two fractions. To tell which number is larger, you need to see which one is missing less. For example, you have 3/4 versus 4/5. Each of these fractions needs 1 to complete the whole. You need to subtract the numerator with one to compare them. For 3/4 we have 1/4 and for 4/5 we have 1/5. You know that if you complete 4/5 you will get 4. You know that 5 is greater than four. Therefore, 4/5 is larger than 3/4.

Hey uh can anyone help me with this? This is a test and I dont need an explanation since its the last day of the marking period,
Archy [21]

Answer:

Look at explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Dilation of scale factor of 5, because it would become more wide and open by a factor of 5. Reflection over y-axis, because it makes the shape double the size. Dilation of scale factor of 1/2, because it makes the shape half it's size.</u></em> The rotating 90 degrees would only change the shapes position, not the size. The translation would only move the shape to a different area, and not change the size.
